Title: Key practical resource for the hard-core VB developer
Product review: If you are tired of worthless first-peek .NET books, this is the one to buy. I found the content to be excellent and the format good for picking and choosing what I needed. I particularly like Mr. Troelsen's approach of doing code by hand first before going through the VS.NET wizards.Some of the single-chapter intros to .NET technologies were better than entire books I've read on the subject (quite a feat!).This is a great practical companion to Dan Appleman's "Moving to VB.NET" which does a great job providing the theory behind .NET in general and VB.NET specifically.Let's hope Mr. Troelson writes some follow-up books on the subjects he dealt with in one chapter in this book (may I suggest GDI+).
