"If you've been trying to figure out ADO.NET by
reading Microsoft's web pages, this book will be like
water in the desert for you.
"Written by seasoned Murach author Anne Boehm, it really does hit a new high water mark for clarity and organization. Part of the problem in learning an impressive, and large, new technology like ADO.NET is deciding where to start. Boehm's organization is as good as I have seen. The side-by-side two-page bites make progress into ADO.NET as painless as possible.
"For a no-nonsense book with a laser focus on learning ADO.NET, you can't beat it!"
Dan Mabbutt, VisualBasic.about.com
"If you're a VB programmer—web or Win Forms—this book
plus Murach's SQL Server
2005 for Developers will carry you farther, faster,
than any other combination I know of. My shelf has a
number of ADO and SQL-related books, but these 2 are
by far the best—put the two together and you'll
be in business."
Wallace C. Allison, Birmingham Software Developers Association
"ADO.NET is a huge and sometimes daunting topic to attempt to cover, but in traditional Murach fashion, this book has the capacity to make its reader an expert if read cover to cover. A great addition to the Murach family of programming reference and tutorial books."
Scott Waletzko, DevCity.net
"I needed to learn ADO.NET for my job, and this book was the best on the topic. I read the entire book in about 3 weeks.
"Everything is explained wonderfully. I love how the examples are laid out on the right with explanations on the left. I also really found the program files extremely helpful. All the examples are already created so that you can see how they work and even modify them.
"I liked this book so much that I also bought Murach's books on ASP.NET, SQL, and Visual Basic 2005...all topics I need to brush up on. From someone who has thousands of dollars worth of technical and programming books, these are great even for beginners."
Erica Gieras, Developer; posted at Amazon.com
"Murach's ADO.NET 2.0 book is a must-have for anyone wanting to enhance their database development skills in the VB 2005 environment or anyone wanting to add a good reference to their technical library."
Patrick Byrne, Lower Alabama .NET Users Group
