Hi,
I have done some coding with Access and I want to try using VB.NET. I am
looking for a good book with examples specially on data access (database).
Could someone in this group recommend?
Does 'Hitchhikers Guide to Visual Studio and SQL Server Best Practice
Architectures and Examples (7th Edition)' use VB.NET platform?

I have found that using MS press books, which there are some for training
that hold both C# and VB.Net examples for certification are good books. The
books are right to the point and with the examples. You should forget that
those books are for certification. Those are training books that give you a
good foundation and basics that you need to know. http://www.microsoft.com/mspress/books/9982.aspx
There is a set of books for Web based development and then there is a set of
books for Windows desktop development.
Again, forget about those books being used for certification. Those books
will give you the basics, which you can come back to again and again. http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/ex.../learningpath/
Those that seek to become .Net developers carry a lot of baggage that they
need to abandon, if they have been doing non .Net development. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

I'm looking for a good schema to use as an example for an object
database system. Something like a books/authors/publishers or
teachers/students/courses kind of thing. There are plenty of examples
of such to be found, especially in the academic literature involving
object databases, but most of them are pathetic. It's hard to take a
schema seriously when it shows MarriedTeacher inheriting from Teacher,
etc. I want something that makes...

I just read the section (and did the exercise) in the C#
Step by Step book that covers Explict Interface
Implementation (where you specify in the method
implementation the specific interface that you are
implementing in the class.
Other than to resolve the problem that arises when a class
implements two interfaces with the same method signature,
what good is it?

Hello,
I am a seasoned Classic ASP programmer who is interested in learning
ASP.NET. I
bought a book (Que's Special Edition Using ASP.NET) which is complete
rubbish, and would like a recommendation of something better.
I have a very basic idea of how ASP.NET works having spent a couple of
days playing with it, but it's still a large amount of fog with only a
little clarity. I would like something that explains what's going on

online copies but this one was published 10 years ago.

I've read loads of reviews of best-selling books on Amazon, so I've got
some ideas from there, but I'd be very interested in hearing what you
all think makes a good C# book.
I'm interested primarily in stylistic things - how light-hearted, what

anything like the Effective series from Meyers would be fine ;)

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
