Summary: one after another
Comment: I have been using books by these authors and Herb Schildt for over 10 years. Not only do I like Osborne books but I like these authors.
First, Osborne books are easy to read (not that small type - you know what I mean). Murry and Pappas also give a lot of short programming examples which are very helpful for new programmers.
I liked the C++ coverage in the book but also liked the material on STL, MFC, etc. I'm about 1/2 through the book and found that the code works correctly.
A good book if you want everyhting from soup to nuts in one book. But don't plan on carrying it too far - it is over 1000 pages.

Summary: complete for the beginner
Comment: I am a third year student at UCLA and a programming major. I am currently in my second C++ course and needed some help with Windows programming. I bought Osborn's book Visual C++.NET.
I have to tell you that this book is very complete. I wasn't so interested in the introductory C++ stuff because I had that in my first C++ course. (Well, okay - I had to review a lot of that material). However, the Windows code and how to write programs was great.
We're using a text book in my course that has a lot of theory but not many examples. The Osborn book has GREAT example code. I was drawing shapes and pasting pictures in programs in just a couple of days. Others in my class couldn't figure out how to put images in code - I had to show them.
My boy friend is in graduate school and he has borrowed this book twice - that is saying a lot because he is such a brain.
Osborn - your book reall helped me.

Summary: C++ and a tiny bit of .Net
Comment: This is a very rich book on C++ and will provide a wealth of knowledge for those unfamiliar with the language. As for experienced C++ developers... stay FAR away. This book should have been titled : ".Net not included". By saying C++ .Net reference... they mean that they ran the examples on visual studio .Net(version 7). Do yourself a favor. If you want to know how to use C++ with managed extensions, don't get this book. The title is misleading. As for newbies... this book will be a good reference for the C++ (non .Net) language.
