Review title: Excellent chapters on VID 6's Design-Time controls (DTCs)
Product review: Design-time controls are one of the big new features in VID 6, and this book has two chapters (15 and 16) devoted to DTCs. Those two chapters alone were worth the price of the book. In fact, I found a solution for dynamically setting parameters for a stored procedure (p. 505) that had even stumped Microsoft support engineers. Another good chapter covers debugging. The only other book on VID 6 I might want is the big fat reference book (not the programmer's guide) from MSPress.
