Who this book is for
This book was written for the .NET 2.0 release of the
.NET Framework. If you're working with a later release
of .NET, please see the current edition of this book:
Murachs ADO.NET 3.5, LINQ, and the Entity Framework with VB 2008
However, if you are working with .NET 2.0 and you're new to
.NET database programming, this book will get you going
faster and better than any other book on the market.
If you already have some database programming experience,
this book lets you learn new skills whenever you have
a few minutes. And new or experienced, this is the ideal
reference for .NET database programming because no one
can remember the countless details that are required.
What background do you need for using this book? If you have basic Visual
Basic programming skills, the kind you should get from
any core VB book, you're ready for this book. If you
don't have all the core skills for developing real-world
applications, we recommend you get a copy of Murach's
Visual Basic 2005.
