I own several VID 6 books and this one answered many questions the others didn't. It was easy to understand and I would highly recommend to anyone. The book doesn't cover everything; however, it covers the most common tools you need to get the job done. Wonderful book!
Excellent for beginners

Take this book and another more-indepth advanced look at InterDev 6.0 and you have the perfect self-study tools in preparation for the Microsoft Exam. I highly recommend this as a new comers book. Easy read (2-3 days) to get you started...on the right foot!
Great example project, introductory explanations and tips.

I liked this book for a number of reasons. First, it has a great sample Visual Interdev project to learn from. Second, the author gives the type of tips/recommendations not explained in documentation but needed in working in the real world. Finally, what is explained is explained well. My only criticism is that the book could have covered more topics and details, but then I don't think that is the nature of these "Dummy" books. Of all of the books on VI that I have purchased (or returned) I like this one the best and would recommend it highly.
In the best tradition of the "Dummies" series

THE book to buy for the new VI6 user. Not only covers the "basics" but the book continues with more advanced topics. If you are new, or just beginning ASP/VI6 development this book is for you. If you are an intermediate user, it's still worth the read.
A very good book to get a handle on VI 6

I enjoyed this book. Excellent for new-comers and those who are upgrading from VI 1.0. I strongly recommend this book.
