Rating:  Summary: Great Book Review: I have been using 3 books to teach myself MFC: Prosise, Brain, and this one. Once I started to write MFC programs, this book is the one I've been turning to the most. It has very good, succinct answers to the problems you run into when using MFC.
Rating:  Summary: Browse the book online Review: I have worked hard to produce a book which is of the best quality and will really help MFC developers get the most "bang for the buck" out of their applications. The feedback I have received so far from reviewers, colleagues, and early readers has been overwhelmingly positive: the general consensus is that every serious MFC developer will benefit from the 130 carefully organized answers, techniques and explanations provided in the book.I believe that the best way to help you understand how you can benefit from this book -- next to letting you actually hold it in your hands -- is to let you browse the book online. You can do exactly this by surfing to my web site where you will find more than 150 pages of information excerpted from the printed book: foreword, preface, detailed table of contents, screen shots and figures... As a bonus, you will be able to download all the sample programs and try them on your own computer. -- Give it a try!
Rating:  Summary: The best reference book for MFC Review: This is the first book I found on MFC that doesn't cover topics exhausted by numerous other books and authors. Eugene covers topics not covered in other books but are essential for creating quality MFC apps, and these topics are well presented with concise and detailed explanations, supported by ocde that ca actually be used. JOB WELL DONE
Rating:  Summary: THE best book on real-world MFC Programming Review: THE best book on real-world MFC programming. I relied on it ever since I bought it. If you are an MFC Developer, this book definitely is going to save you lots of time and frustration by providing answers to questions that you are most likely going to have in your MFC applications. Everyone who programs In MFC should have this book.
Rating:  Summary: The easiest way to developing great MFC applications Review: When you're done reading your MFC books and want to do some serious development, there is no book better than "The MFC Answer Book". It's what you're always looking for, fast clear answer to important questions. The structure of the book is amazingly simple and great for finding that nagging question that no one could answer for you. I suggest this book to every developer who is tired of going through dozens of articles and never finding what he/she is looking for.
Rating:  Summary: Must have!! Finally a fast reference.. Review: Must Have!! Finally a fast reference to the "I've seen this done before.." I've already used it, and I've only had it 5 hours! Already waiting for "More MFC Answers!" Great work Eugne!! How about that next book???
Rating:  Summary: A great FAQ Review: This book is written in a question and answer format, just like a FAQ. Although the content predominantly revolves around documents and views, many other common questions are also answered. Personally, I love the format and the content. I hate having to weed through several huge books to find an answer to a simple question. I loaned out my previous copy, and it wasn't returned. I ended up buying another copy. While this book won't make you a guru, it just might save you an hour of frustration. Since I migrate between operating systems, APIs, and SDKs, I never put in the time to earn the title of MFC Guru, so this book comes in handy, especially when it comes to refreshing my memory, without having to plow through the MFC code. Unfortunately, this book is not all-inclusive, as many questions are left out. The "new" controls are left out entirely. However, even with the omissions, the book will give you a straight answer or point you in the right direction about 90% of the time. Highly recommended.
Rating:  Summary: Really has very few answers Review: Based upon 49 reviews, this book has a 5-star rating. Amazing!!! I have a dozen or so MFC books, and this one is one of the most useless to me. A book such as this ("The MFC Answer Book") should be a good reference book. But each time I've looked for an answer to a question, it's not in the book (yesturday, I wanted to look up CString details but there's nothing in there on CStings). The print in this book is LARGE, so the actual amount of content in the book is low.END
Rating:  Summary: Excellent walkthrough Review: I have EVERY bible on MFC. professional mfc, windows withh mfc visual c++ inside but I found this book the most valuable. Instead of bombarding you with jargon and theorie this book can help you learn a lot better than others, for a great deal i do not care about mfc internals casue I DO NOT HAVE THE TIME to learn everything MFC is suppposed to be a library to USE not to completle dissect , sometimes you just have to accept certain things and work wiht them, I wont deny that I just copy and pase a lot from the examples..but even then its easy to see where you are heading and whats actually happening as the source is very good commented, the author even helped me wiht a serious problem.. you wwant somethign else than the usual boring looking mfc stuff..check this one out...
