Introduction to Programming Using Visual Basic 2005, An (6th Edition)

5 reviews
David I. Schneider

Prentice Hall, 2006

The Best of the Bunch - by far!
I really must take issue with the contributor who described this book as garbage. Having decided to learn programming on my own,I tried several "beginners" books without much success. I could complete most of the projects offered by these books which were, by and large, well intended and well-written. And yet... somehow I never really got to grips with the language. That is - until I bought ...

Sams, 2008

Great book for beginners
I love this book! The only programming I had had was Basic back in 1984-85 so obviously I am starting from the beginning. I needed basics (like general definitions, logic of how programming works, and specifics for how the Visual Basic works) so I could understand the programmers I work with. After reading and going through the exercises in this book, I can speak the same language and I've ...

Advanced VBScript for Microsoft Windows Administrators (Pro Other)

Don Jones, Jeffery Hicks

Microsoft Press, 2006

Delivers what it promises
It never ceases to amaze me how many scripting books, including this one, start off telling you that you should already have intermediate to advanced scripting skills before you read, yet spend an initial chapter explaining what an array or an object is. It leaves me feeling that their definition of what "advanced" is will differ greatly from mine. I am also always a little dismayed when ...

Step by Step says it all
I am almost finished with this book. I am working my way through this and one of the "dummies" guides at the same time. I am getting much more out of this book. The examples are clear. Everything has worked (so far!) and I like the general pace. A side note: make sure to check out all the (free) help on the web if you are learing a new language! Before I beat my head against the wall too ...

Best Book for Beginners & Intermediate
I really can't add much to what has already been commented buy others here. The relevant thing I have to say is that out of 3 kids (1 intermediate & 2 beginners with little experience in programming) working on a same project (at High School) bought this book and came up with results and - more importantly - with solid concepts, within less than 4 weeks, after unsuccessfully trying 2 other ...

Andrew Troelsen

Apress, 2008

Wow! This is THE book for VB2008 and/or .NET 3.5!!!
I cannot over-rate this book. I've been developing systems for 40 years, and I've never seen a better book of this type. The author, Andrew Troelsen, really knows his stuff, and knows how to teach it. I only wish I'd had his VB 2005/.NET 2.0 book two years ago when I started trying to learn .NET! There's a lot of advanced material in this book, but it's good for any experienced programmer who ...

Form First, Late Objects :(
I have mixed feelings about this book. I do like the clear writing style, the step by step tutorial approach which is at the right pace for a beginner, never too terse , never too boring. I can also easily see the author is an experienced teacher, and for patience and dedication he reminds me of the best in the field, like Ivor Horton. But I do think the general organization of the book, the ...

Programming Microsoft Visual Basic 2005: The Language (Pro Developer)

Francesco Balena

Microsoft Press, 2006

Excellent, monumental book - but not for everyone
Visual Basic appeared more than 15 years ago as a tool to define quick prototypes and develop GUI applications with ease. Its development environment, which the language was literally blended in, was remarkably easy to use. I remember those good old days when a fellow colleague of mine showed me how to draw VB forms and in less than an hour after I was already developing a new GUI application. ...

Excellent Excel/VBA resource
This book was very helpful for some projects that I needed to accomplish with Excel & VBA. Some of the chapters were extremely enlightening in seeing the big picture of using VBA with Excel and other MS Office applications. Other chapters are excellent resources that I will refer to many times in the future. I would recommend this book for both the beginner (in using VBA) as well as the ...

Anne Boehm

Mike Murach & Associates, 2007

To the point!
I am a C# developer but when I started browsing this book I couldn't help it but to continue reading it. It is not only about the VB language itself, but instead, how to use it so solve software problems. It teaches how to better write software, best practices and approaches. This book doesn't cover all the theory in the world about a topic. Also, not all topics. But it tells you how to use ...

An easy and fun way to learn Visual Basic 2008
This is one of the easiest and most helpful book for anyone to learn Visual Basic 2008. It is tutorial driven with complete working code supplied on the CD packaged with the book. The IDE controls and Visual Basic structures are introduced gradually in a piecemeal and painless fashion so that the reader is not overwhelmed by a flood of new concepts and programming structures.
