Summary: Errors all over the place
Comment: The book need much work with errors throughout the book, especially in the examples. I couldn't get any of the examples to work with out much repair work on my part. If you're use to repairing and debugging programs that's great. If you're reading just to get a perspective on things the book is adequate, but if you actually want to learn something use caution with this book.

The CD is valueless and not worth a cent.

Summary: Good Book - for a beginner
Comment: This is a good book if you are a beginner wanting to become familiar with VB6 data access methodologies like ADO, RDO, etc. Written in plain English and covers the basics well.

Summary: Worst examples I've encountered in a book
Comment: While this book may have good intents, it is full of flaws... both the in the nature of the examples presented (there's no expected output, or the example is structured such that there wouldn't be any), and the quality of the examples. Not surprising as the examples are absolutly riddled with errors, including the code on the CD-ROM. It's clear that nobody ever tried to execute most of the sample code as much of it simply does not execute without compile errors. If you already know what you're doing you can fix them easily enough... but then, why would you buy the book. Qualifies as the worst book investment I have ever made. Even the IDG feedback site doesn't respond! Avoid this title like the plague if you really want information that will help you figure this stuff out.
