Summary: Money, paper and time wasting ...
Review: I don't know how is it possible to put a 200 pages material in a book that counts more than 1200 pages, but people from a Sybex did it :( Plus, one of the worst thing that author could do is to print complete listings that VC++ generates and really BIG screen dumps...One of the worst books about Visual C++ :((((

Summary: Excellent for someone with no Visual C++ knowledge.
Review: I picked up the book, because I had the Visual C++ program from my workplace. I have had no prior experience with Visual C++. This book, quite literally, walks the reader through the basic programming tools of Visual C++. I look forward to trying out all the examples in the book. A definate must have for those with little or no Visual C++ background. (Works best if you have the Visual C++ program while you read the book.)

Summary: too simplistic
Review: This book provides an excellent introduction to both C++, Visual C++ and MFC. The sections on C++ give sufficient detail to enable the reader to progress further into the real subject matter without becoming bogged down in subtleties which need only be addressed when programming in anger. Several Win95 applications are developed through the text, including simple drawing and text editing samples and with reasonable explanations of the methodologies employed. The book is well laid out and easily followed. Although all sample code is included on the accompanying CD, full listings are contained within the text. Whereas some readers may find this of use, it might be argued that the space could have been better utilised in covering additional topics such as DAO and ActiveX. By the end of the book, the reader has a reasonable introductory knowledge of the subject. I would recommend it to anyone at the setting out on the arduous path towards Visual C++ proficiency. Inevitably, however, having been well weaned, the infant developer soon requires more solid nourishment in the form of more in-depth texts.
