 Good for users with VB knowledge August 12, 1998
This book is good for reader with basic knowledge on VB. The most usefule part is the first two weeks' chapters. From which, you can build a good and simple database/interactive web applications. The last week's chapters required deeper VB knowledge and don't provide the same details as previous two weeks. Anyway, it's a good choice for Windows based developer (especially beginner) to develop web database application.
 Some examples don't work but good coverage of ADO & ADC July 8, 1998
This book had good coverage of ADO and to a certain extent ADC. For the first 5 chapters a lot of the examples didn't work which is frustrating because you expect examples on a CD to have at least been tried before being included. All of these could be made to work by changing the code around a bit. You would think as the book was part written by a Microsoft person that they would know what they were doing! All I can say is if you do buy this book don't think it's something your doing wrong when these examples don't work - Hopefully this will be corrected in future editions.
 Good reference manual...that's it July 2, 1998
This book gives good background information on all the subjects in covers. I wasn't too impressed with the "working" examples (some didn't even work) however as a reference manual it will serve well for someone wanting to learn concepts of ADO, ADC, ASP, and OLE DB.
Would be better if the examples all worked June 21, 1998
Not a bad attempt to teach a quite complex subject over a relatively short time. It is infuriating however that some of the examples do not work i.e In chapter 5 the script was put in the wrong place on some of the examples causing an error to occur. I can understand printing mistakes, but surely the examples should have been fully tested beforehand.
Ok reference, bad organizaton, non practical examples June 12, 1998
I expected this book to show more real world examples, not just cool non-practical ways to make your code work on generic applications. Get "Professional Active server pages" as a better detailed reference book. I got so mad after spending money on this book that I wanted to just throw it out my 7th floor window.
