Title: Big book, little useful advanced content
Product review: Once again, I am awed by the fact that a publisher can continually put out books with untested code samples. I am an advanced database programmer and I found this book of little use to me. RDS was simply glazed over with the properties, events and methods supplied, but no concrete explanations of how to use it in an Internet environment. For a beginner or intermediate user, this book may supply a good foundation, but when trying to figure out why the code samples don't work or why there are inconsistencies in the syntax of the samples, this book will leave you hanging. May as well just fight it out with MSDN...
