Summary: Learn VB
Review: If you want to learn VB then this is the book. I know VB 5 is getting old but there are little differences between the VB5 and VB6 (Neither is really "WEB FOCUSED"). So pick up this book and learn the language and product and get ready for VB7 which will be web ready. This is a good start into the world of VB. Easy reading and fun.

Summary: Excellent Beginner's book
Review: If you want to start learning about Visual Basic, this book is for you. No programming experience required but it helps to have programming backgound. Eventually you will need a more advanced book.

Summary: The Book That Gets Used
Review: In a nutshell, the book lives up to it's name. Far from the content,the binding is coming apart for every page read. The author goes into structure and the basics for a good foundation to raise above and move to the next stage.I found no errors in the practice files, this says alot about how it was developed. Even though he doesn't talk about advanced programming techniques, this should come at no surprise since the book is designed for the newcomer in Visual Basic. Worth every penny. I will probably read another one of Michael books on the subject in the future.

Summary: Excellent Beginning for those who know absolutely nothing!!!
Review: This is an excellent book for beginners. I encourage those who complete this book to also go with the Visual Basics mastering series and workshop. Learning Visual Basics allows you to understand how the programs that you run on your computer actually work. This book gives you a full understanding of that. It is hand on. No way to go wrong with this book. I wish Microsoft had books like this for the entire visual studio. You will have fun learning visual basics 5 with this book. Take your time and enjoy the experience so you retain everything this book has to offer.
