Title: teach yourself visual basic 6 ? ---I THINK NOT
Review: I must say, this book sucked. Chapter 2 to chapter 5 is somewhat useful, but this is in no way for beginners. The writer assumes that the reader is familiar with visual basic terms and uses them extensively in this book, which of course just confuses the reader. And what bothered me more is the book doesn't really talk about the programming aspect, it concentrates more on how visual basic itself works. There were couple of examples (which if you are a beginner will stare at it as if it is written in a different language, even at the explanation part). I guess I am so furious, because this book wasted 30 days of my time and where I learned little to nothing, and almost (yes, ALMOST) made me feel like ending any programming desire I had. But Luckily I picked up few other beginners book for visual basic 6, and finally realized it is not as hard as this book made it seem like it is. So my advice is, don't waste your money, effort and time on this.
Is the review positive or negative?
