Title: A *must* for every Windows BASIC programmer
Review: As good as Daniel Appleman's book is, I guess most publishers and authors felt writing a competing book wasn't worth the effort. Thanks goodness neither the author, nor Wrox felt that way.This book is not a replacement for Appleman's book. But it sure is a lot easier to read and makes a great companion. It's better organized, allowing you to search for API entries based on the type of task you want to overcome.This is the author's first effort, so it's only 360+ pages. Not bad. If I were to offer one complaint, it would be that there is no companion CDROM. At $40 (retail), it's odd for a computer book not to include one.
Is the review positive or negative?
