I like ASP.NET Unleashed. There is a 2nd edition, which I have not seen, but
suppose it is better than the first edition.
MSPress books Step by Step are also good for beginning. If you have some
programming knowledge, the Wrox Fast Track books are pretty good. After you
are comfortable with ASP.NET, I like the Wrox ASP.NET Website Programming:
Problem - Design - Solution, C# Edition(they have one for VB.NET too)
MSPress ADO.NET by David Sceppa is also good.
Hope that helps..

I have both ASP.NET Step by Step and Designing Microsoft ASP.NET
Applications by MS Press. I think that both are lacking, however the
Designing book is light years ahead of the step by step... and I found
it brand new, still sealed in the plastic, on Amazon for $3.50. After
S&H, it was the best book I've ever bought for $6.

I was browsing both the Amazon and Barnes & Noble websites looking for some good books but there appears to be *so* many and it's hard to tell which are going to be good or not. I'm looking for one or two *good* books on the subjects of ASP.NET and ADO.NET together. E.g., using ASP.NET on the front end to communicate with a back end database via ADO.NET. I'm hoping to find a mid-level type of book. I've been using PHP and MySQL for...
