Summary: Doesn't cover CDO 2000!
Comment: This book covers CDO 1.2.1. It does not cover CDO for Windows 2000. I did not discover this until I bought the book. The project I was working on required CDO 2000, so the book was worthless to me.

Summary: CDO Programming explained
Comment: Started out with this book to understand the direction of Microsoft in the gradual move towards object model programming. CDO is meant to ease the "pain" of raw extended MAPI programming. However, there are some issues and cases that still required the ascent into the arcane area of raw MAPI. Examples are custom agent programming and Calendar programming(which is greatly undocumented) using raw MAPI. Correlating IDispatch and IUnknown Interfaces does not make it easier, and smart pointers are not a panacea for all programming issues. Enough said... I really love this book, and with the move to Exchange 2000, it should give a good foundation for CDO programming in both C++ and VB.

Summary: A little disjointed
Comment: While most of what you need to know about CDO programming is in this book, I found that the information could have been presented in a more friendly manner. Most of the examples seem to be spread out throughout several chapters, leaving you to do a lot of flipping back and forth to figure out fairly straight forward information. Quite frustrating. To be fair to the authors, I have found this to be the case with most of the books in the WROX library, so it is probably just the editorial style of the publishing company.
If you like the WROX style, you should be happy with this book.
