Title: Dig the book, you'll be pleasantly surprised!
Product review: The only two things that prevent this book from getting and 8 or above rating are 1) the errors and 2) the absence of updated code as promised.As for the content, this is a book to read if you are aspiring to be an application programmer and believe that Internet, Microsoft (surprise), and Database programming are things to learn in the new future.Why?? because it explains in depth about SQL, it serves a healthy dose of DCOM, Internet programming, even Game Programming. If you are even slightly interested in one or more of those areas, you ought to check this book out.The example programs are also interesting albeit rather hard to compile.I have checked out other Borland C++ Builder books and none of them is close to this one in terms of contents and original ideas presented
