"I have a huge library of computer books. Yours are THE best! Your Visual Basic book is so good, I opened it and did the whole application from scratch (even though I'd never tried VB before)."
Tatiana Tikhonko, Developer, New York
"What I love about the Murach's books is they
have the completeness of a textbook, with a practical
perspective. If you're a Visual Basic person, this is
every bit as good as their C# books. Put one on your
desk!"
Joe Stagner, Microsoft Technical Evangelist
& Developer Community Champion, blogs.msdn.com/JoeStagner
"I recently picked up your Visual Basic book by Ms. Boehm at B&N. A stellar example of how to impart knowledge; truly, a publication well worth the price. Keep up the great work, Mike."
John Cardoza, CPA, Chief Financial Officer, Amcon Design & Construction Co., LLC, Waukesha, Wisconsin
"If you don't have much programming experience
(but you would like to!), this is a "best of breed"
book. You won't be sorry you got it."
Dan Mabbutt, About Visual Basic.com
"I had a customer that wanted a quick little app
that involved a simple master detail screen and exporting
of data. If I developed it in Access, it would have
taken 16 hours to hammer out the application. I thought
to myself, this would be a great opportunity to try
out VB 2005 and SQL Server Express 2005 and use all
the nifty databinding and wizards.
"Forty hours later,
I was banging my head in frustration. The data was not
saving correctly; events were being triggered for reasons
I did not understand. In desperation after an all-nighter,
I ran to Barnes and Noble and bought 3 books, including
your VB 2005. That evening I had most of the quirks
resolved.
"I just wanted to
thank Murach publishing and Anne Boehm for helping me
out.... Thanks to you, by the next day I was distributing
the first draft through ClickOnce deployment over the
Internet. The book keeps you on track and is straight
to the point."
Dan Eichacker, Software Developer, South
Dakota
"This book should be required reading for any
application developer using Visual Basic."
Ken Starnes, Portland Visual Basic Users
Group
"This book is a must for those students who wish to master Visual Basic 2005 in a quick span of time."
Anand Narayanaswamy, C# Corner
