User Review:
Visual Basic has had a long and somewhat torturous history from being a simple clean language when it was introduced to becoming part of the .NET Framework (whatever that is) and getting much more complex. The Express Edition, as used in this book, seems to be an attempt to go back to their roots and make a clean simple language again.
This book is intended to be an introduction to programming for a complete beginner. It intends to take the beginner from plugging in the CD to getting a working program doing something. The applications he uses as examples are quite simple. They don't do much, but then again, they are intended for the complete beginner. And while simple they do discuss some things like interfacing to the web or to a database that can become parts of fairly serious applications.
The book is supplied with two CD's to assist in the programming challenge. Some of this is software, some of it is instructional video.
