Summary: Excellent Book
Review: This is a great book for all VB Distributed App developers. Its clearly written, easily understandable and gets straight to the point.Also the examples are nice and clear - not 100 lines of sample code to demonstrate a simple point, unlike Microsoft help files. Whilst there is a wealth of beginner books there are very few good books beyond this level - but this is one of them. If you have a year of more VB experience and you develop distributed apps then buy this book.

Summary: This is a GREAT book!
Review: This is a great book, mostly due to the amount of code examples that it has. With most of the advanced Visual Basic books that I've used, I often have to go look up additional information in help, only to find he exact same information there, too. The silly "hello, world" demos included with these books are not real-world enough for me and still leave me wondering how to apply the concepts to my application. I've never seen any of the demos from this book anywhere else, and they are mostly all excellent. This book has its share of "hello, world" demos too, but they are balanced by some of the best real-world examples I've seen in any other book on programming. It's obvious that the author has actually done this type of programming in real life. I can honestly say that I know exactly how I'll implement my distributed application now that I have this book.

Summary: Distributed COM Application Development Using Visual Basic 6
Review: Very poor book. A lot of useless for VB programmer theory; several chapters on VB controls and technics that have no connection to the book topic - Distributed COM; too little about MTS, nothing practical about Distributed COM without MTS.

Summary: Best n-tier book I've ever read
Review: What a fantastic book. Just reading this one book gave me a better understanding of n-tier technology and programming than a multitude of other self-help books. Well written and easy to understand, and great examples. Get this book while you can.
