Title: Learn a lot, but only after you suffer a lot
Review: In chapter 5 the author writes: What are User-Defined Properties? First of all, you need to understand the difference between predefined and user-defined properties. User-defined properties are those properties that already exist in the UserControl Object ... Hey, wait a minute. Isn't that a definition of predefined properties. Of course. The author got them mixed up, didn't he. How much further will you have to read before you realize his mistake. This is only one of hundreds such inaccuracies in the book. Still, if you can correct the author's sloppiness, you will learn a lot about ActiveX Control design.
