Title: The Author must have some lying friends...
Review: Because this book does not deserve 5 stars by any standard. I had already taken a class in VB and had wanted to go to The Next Level. I picked up this book because it seemed to cover alot and it had the most pages (which I thought meant it had the most info). The author basically hits you from both sides, he doesn't explain the code well and he doesn't print the full code in the book. This causes you to have to keep going back to the CD and figure out the code by yourself which is annoying. Moreover, he tends to begin explaining something and then move on to something else without finishing the explaination. I did eventually get through the whole book but that was only because I'm a CS major and have had the concepts explained to me before in other Programming languages. But I wouldn't suggest this book for anyone, for experienced programmers the constant errors will drive you mad and beginners won't be able to understand it at all.
