> OK. Thank for the suggestion. Hopefully, there will be others.
But, are you referring to "Programming Microsoft Visual Basic .NET (Core
Reference)" or "Programming Microsoft® Visual Basic® .NET Version 2003".
Both are by Balena?

They are really both the same book except that the "version 2003" is updated
for VS.NET 2003 (.NET Framework 1.1). The "Core reference" one refers to
VS.NET 2002 (.NET 1.0).
The 2003 version is only about $10 more (retail price anyways, which I paid
for mine because I needed it that day). You get a lot more in the 2003
version, it is well worth the extra coin. For example, there are about 3
new chapters (I am paraphrasing new material from the Introduction of the
2003 version: "PInvoke, COM Interop, COM+, remoting, code access security,
and Windows Forms applications over HTTP.")
Also the 2003 version comes with TWO e-books (previous version had only 1
e-book). The 2 e-books in the 2003 version are a complete e-book of the
book itself, and a complete e-book of "Programming Microsoft Visual Basic
6." The previous version only had the e-book for "Programming with
Microsoft Visual Basic 6" and did not come with an e-book of itself.
Again, the 2003 version is well worth the extra $10 and is obviously more
up-to-date (if you use .NET 1.1 - VS.NET 2003).
