Summary: Beginning Visual Basic 6 is a fast track to learning VB 6
Comment: Beginning Visual Basic 6 is a fast track to learning VB 6. Using plenty of examples and screenshots, Peter Wright takes the beginner through everything they need to know about VB 6, from creating simple applications through to ActiveX controls and ADO database tools.
Each section has 'Try It Out' examples and questions and worked solutions for each chapter to reinforce the lessons learned in the chapters.
This book is ideal for anyone wishing to write Windows programs in Visual Basic 6, whether they be absolute beginners or already fluent in another programming language.

Summary: Get Another Book!
Comment: This is my 3rd book from WROX. My first two books are fantastic, except for the too-small print which makes them hard to read. This book however is a BIG disappointment. The author probably knows what he is talking about. He just doesn't know how to say it clearly. Because the book jumped around from topic to topic without cohesiveness, it comes across as a hodge podge of this, that, and the other thing. I found it annoying when the author frequently referred to his "other" book instead of including an extra page or two to review the topic in this book. What a concept!
I don't recommend that you buy this book. Get a copy of John Smileys book on Programming Objects with VB 6. Smiley's book is more cohesive and I prefer his teaching style.
I gave this book 3 stars instead of just one, because it's not all bad. I must have learned something from reading it and doing the exercises, though I am hard presed to say exactly what I learned.

Summary: This Is The One!
Comment: This is hands down the best book for learning to program Visual Basic using objects. I know because I bought all the others and they simply left me dazed and confused. Perter Wright's perfect sense of what to introduce and when and how to introduce it was key to my learning this subject. Most importantly, he thoroughly documents the code in his examples so no aspiring programmer is left behind.
This book is simply the best of the best.
