Summary: Simply a great way to learn how to program
Comment: Schneider teaches programming NOT visual basic...he does use Visual Basic to teach you how to program..so you learn great Visual Basic along the way. I recommend this book for any student or beginner programmer as their first book to buy. You will learn the right way to program from the start. Yes you will need to buy more books to go further in the future but a beginner will be occupied for 6 months with Schnieder.
By the way, a lot of Australian Universities and Colleges are now using Schnieders books as a tool to teach students how to program.
If you can already program and use VB, don't bother you will need something more in-depth...again its a fantastic beginners book.

Summary: If there had to be only one...
Comment: I've always been interrested by the computer world and one day decided to teach myself programming. I picked up this book and started to read. At that moment, I didn't even know what a programming language was. I read it from cover to cover and didn't have the impression to learn something but suddenly I found myself programming small applications. I read other books then and today I'm a MCSD (Microsoft Certified Solution Developer). During my whole journey on the learning of programming, this one was the clearest book I've read. So, if you're a complete beginner in programming, get this book fast ! I would even recommend you to read it BEFORE moving to .NET books. If you already are a programmer coming from another language, it may not be the right choice.

Summary: College text used - not happy
Comment: I have my VB final due tommorrow. I have to agree with another reviewer. The examples don't explain what you need to know for the projects. My teacher is very smart but she grades hard. Between that and this difficult to learn from book our class has gone from 22 students to get this 4. There are 4 of us left in what should have been a beginner type programming class.
I am going to buy a Thompson Learning VB book instead. I am sure it will be better.
The only guy who did well with this book already had C++ I and II.
