Summary: An excellent well written and well thought-out book!
Comment: I recently decided to learn Visual C++ 6, after finding that there are some limitations to what can be done in Visual Basic. I have been trying to learn from tutorials etc. on the web but they always seem to be unfinished or not cover all of the important stuff. I am only 15 so I thought it was quite a challenge for me to try and learn this so called complex and confusing language. I had taken the foresight before reading this of learning the C++ language and think that that is a must before attempting this book, or Visual C++ at all.
After reading that book, I have a solid understanding of the Windows APIs and can use the MFCs reasonably confidently. I would still class myself as a beginner, but at least now I have a starting point and hopefully can pick-up the rest as I go along. Even after the first 10 pages, I could see that this book was well written and the information inside of it would be easy to take in and understand.

Summary: A great book for beginning Visual C++ and MFC programming
Comment: I really enjoyed this book. I am an AS/400 programmer with 11 years experience and want to become more familiar with Windows programming. I started off with a Sam's Teach Yourself Visual C++ in 21 days (which I also liked) and followed up with this one. The authors presented the material in an easy to read and follow format. I only had two issues with the book. One, the authors would occasionally pull a function out of nowhere and use it with little or no explanation as to why. And two, I thought they dragged out the examples on drawing too long. I would have preferred more time spent on the database chapter rather than the drawing examples. But, overall an excellent book and I highly recommend it.

Summary: Good only for writing interfaces
Comment: It does a pretty good job concerning how to write user interfaces, but it falls a bit short on back end programming.
