Microsoft Visual Foxpro 6.0 Programmer's Guide

Rating:
Summary: NOT FOR BEGINNERS
Review: As we all know, Microsoft does not write books for beginners; therefore, if you were looking to learn a computer language or how to create databases using tools like Visual FoxPro, a Microsoft 'manual' would not be the book for you. The title should be "Microsoft Visual FoxPro 6.0 Intermediate to Advanced Programmer's Guide"

Summary: Not so hot
Review: I am currently using this book at my new job. I was previously exposed to FoxPro 2.6 and then Visual FoxPro, but I never learned to program in it. It is very confusing to the average person who may little to no knowledge of basic programming principles. I see why the "Dummies" series is so popular.....definitely not for beginners!

Summary: Great book Lots of concepts still applies to Visual FoxPro 8
Review: I have this book. It's on my desktop on the time. Lots of concepts still applies to Visual FoxPro 8. Every VFP programmer should have it. I doubt Microsoft Press will release a Programmer's Guide for Visual FoxPro 8. Use this book to look up techniques, etc. Not to read cover to cover. You use it once, it pays off.
