Summary: If you're programming with ADO.NET, you need this book!
Comment: There is no question that Bob Beauchemin knows his stuff! Anyone who has done any database programming and wants to learn ADO.NET should read this book. Bob obviously has an incredible knowledge of database access standards and ADO.NET is no exception. I have read a number of books on ADO.NET at this point, but none of them even come close to explaining it in the clear and concise way that Bob does in this book. Having programmed with ODBC, OLE DB, and ADO, I loved the chapters that compare the common concepts and point out the ways to accomplish the same tasks that I was familiar with from the other standards.

Summary: This book rocks!!
Comment: This books leave all other ADO books far, far behind! It is clear that the author really, really knows his stuff and have a lifetime worth of data base knowledge. In addition to this he knows how to transfer this knowledge to the reader, and even the most esoteric detail becomes understandable. Thanks to this book i have already solved a couple of really "unsolvable" problems, in a project I'm working on at the moment. If you are working with ADO.NET; this book is a must.

Summary: A comprehensive reference to ADO.NET
Comment: I was generally very pleased with this book. It is an excellent reference for .NET developers using any of the more advanced features of ADO.NET. Bob's chapter on XML integration with ADO.NET is particularly well done.
I expect to be using this book as a reference for years to come.
My only compliant is that the book sometimes blurs the distinctions between SQL Server and other relational databases such as Oracle and DB2 UDB. Features that are only relevant to SQL Server are sometimes lumped together with more general database connectivity issues. It would have been clearer to have separate chapters for using ADO.NET with databases other than Microsoft SQL Server.
