Title: Good book for passing the exam, poor book for WinForms and .NET in general
Review: I'm giving this book 4 stars since I bought it to pass the exam. If you aren't a database/ado.net guru then you might want some supplementary material on use of the DataSet/DataAdaptor/SqlDataReader classes.As a reference or way of learning .NET programming this book is very poor. I found myself disagreeing with the authors advice numerous times (I've been doing .NET since V1.0 beta 1), but perhaps this just illustrates a flaw in the examination.IMHO the best WinForms book is Chris Sells' "Windows Forms Programming in C#".
Is the review positive or negative?
