C# Book reccomendation for C++ programmer.

Hi,

I am a very experienced C++ Win32 programmer using VS 7.1. Are there
any recommendations for C# books that assume no prior C# knowledge, but
will not require me to slog through a lot of novice stuff about OOP and
basic programming techniques that I am already familiar with?

Thanx in advance.

Did you check Petzold book on Programming Windows with C#?

I found it the easiest and most useful. For you it might be all what you
need assuming you did Win32 programming in VC.

Jake,
Nathan Adams wrote a book called ".NET and COM: The Complete
Interoperability Guide". IMHO, considering your background, COM Interop
will probably be the biggest thing you'll need to understand while moving to
..NET. Good luck!
