Quick, concise, clear, how-to-do C# explanations
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
- This is a rare helpful book that has cleared up many C# .Net mysteries for an experienced MsAccess VBA programmer. The author has found a method to help a programmer get up and running, within the C# environment, in a quickest amount of time possible, without getting bogged down in minutiae. The screenshots along with the code, and clear detailed explanations are a breath of fresh air. Many of us have to deal with frustrating programming examples where a programmer has to untangle all sorts of complexity, putting up with unhelpful side trips into other topics, just to find out how to extract data from a table. This book does the opposite. This book, Mastering C# Database Programming, has clean code that goes straight to the heart of matter, with little or no fan fare. With quick, concise, compact, and clear how-to-do explanations. By far the best C# book I own.
Great, but not for the beginners

This book is probably the best book in the market if you want to take your novice c# asp.net skills to intermediate/expert level. It provides plenty of good examples and practically all the knowledge you need to become a fully competent c# asp.net developer. I especially found the chapter on SQL and T-SQL particulary awesome. As a Senior DBA who has worked on SQL for 7 years, I thought the author had superb knowledge of SQL transactions which I rarely see even amongst the SQL books. I highly suggest every c# developer to delve deelply into the SQL chapters of this book as it will increase your T-SQL transaction knowledge exponentially.

Should be more than 5 stars
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I bought this book and the same author's Visual C# .NET book, also from Sybex.I found the introductory chapter on SQL very useful, since I didn't know SQL to begin with; I found it contained everything I needed to know to get going with databases. Just enough without going overboard!This book teaches the basics of databases, and then plunges in to teach how to use C# to access a database. The book also teaches advanced data access using C#, such as caching data in an ADO.NET program.
Use it every day

I have this book and the author's other C# book from Sybex. I didn't know ADO.NET before buying this book and now I'm an expert. I use this book every day too!
