ODBC 3.5 Developer's Guide

Summary: One of the best guide/reference book on programming I know
Review: This book is one of the best comprehensive guides/referebnces I've ever seen in the area of programming - and I've seen it quite a bit. I studied programming in Russia using Russian guides and when I came here 4 years ago, I was unpleasantly surprised by a low level of books on programming in the US. By now I can name 2 or 3 of them that are satisfactory, and this is one of the best.

Summary: a comprehensive reference book
Review: This is a very good reference book for day-to-day
ODBC programming. It's easy to look up functions for
a particular task and every function has an accompanying
example. As noted earlier it may not completely follow
some of standard but for most of my purpose it's good enough.

My main complaint is that a reference book of
this volume should really be published as a set of HTML
pages with a search engine. (No eBook, please!)
