Its a Reference
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This book is not at all intended to be a novel, its a reference. I will admit that this book is not ordered as would have thought, although there is some logical way to work with the book. This is a reference that I trust and use, I am one to stand up for this book, it has a lot of example code. I would hope that any intermedite programmer would consider this book, it holds a hell of a lot more example code than many others.
The bomb....

Here it is the complete reference library. If u need a VB6 reference, look no further, it's HUGE! :)
Hey, it's a Reference Library, not a novel.

Coupled with the Programmer's Guide, these are the best books a VB developer can own. Yes they are the online help files in print form, but some of us still like to hold a book, rather than read the computer.They contain exhaustive information on EVERY command in VB6, ALL the standard tools that ship with VB6, and detail components like DHTML documents, ActiveX documents, ActiveX controls, and even (a little) IIS apps.I am confused by some other reviews: mine have an index, everything is laid out in multiple font sizes and weights, and it's all very well laid out and easy to understand.I have been developing with VB for over a year and a half and I still use these books on almost a daily basis.
A MUST HAVE FOR DEVELOPERS WHO WANT A REFERENCE on VB

These books is a must have for all developers, developing on MS VB 5.0-6.0 or Office VBA 5.0-6.0. Packed with information about controls and objects. This book has helped me with my Development needs as a quick reference. For more advance needs on VB or VBA go with MS Press or Wrox Press VB books.
Always start with MS documents

As a contract programmer that has used VB since 2.0, I recommend this set, along with the "Programmer's Guide" for any serious programmer, from rookie to pro. I particularly like the "Component Tools Guide." I used it to teach myself ActiveX control development fundamentals. From here go to the specialized third party books, like Appleman's "Developing ActiveX Components With..." whatever applies if you need a software engineering level understanding of the technology. I keep this three volume set and the Programmer's Guide in my car's trunk at all times.
