Question about a VB author

Several years ago I found a book on Visual Basic that helped me tremendously
in my coding skills, actually there were several. One of them stands out
"Professional Visual Basic 6 Databases" by Charles Williams. My question is:
Does anyone know if Charles has any intentions on authoring any other books
on .Net?

Joseph,

If you know the author's name & the title of the book then I suggest the
best idea would be to visit their website & send them an e-mail

It would appear that this Charles Williams has not written any other books
in this genre.
I checked Bookpool, Amazon and Wiley (which now owns the rights to Wrox
Press stuff), and was unable to unearth any other titles.
You might want to contact Wiley to see if anything is in the works.

AFAIK Charles Williams didn't author a book about .NET. I don't know if
it's easy to contact him because the publisher of "Professional Visual Basic
6 Databases", Wrox, doesn't exist any more.
