Title: Good VB & ADO introduction. Poor for C++ developers
Review: While I've written both VB & C++ components, I must say that this book is written solely for VB programmers. In that context, the ADO coverage is good for beginners & reaches as far as paging, batch processing & disconnected recordsets albeit the coverage is light. From there on, the book runs dry with samples out of context & disconnected. Enter the C++ programmer & you are certain to lose interest rapidly. MTS & MSMQ coverage is a drudgery while parts II & III as they pertain to design & architecture are an endless toil. Am I alone in thinking that VB & enterprise should never be mentioned together due to the fact that they constitute an oxymoron?
Is the review positive or negative?
