Title: Sams Teach Yourself Visual C++.NET in 21 Days (2nd Edition) by Davis Chapman ISBN: 0-672-32197-1 Publisher: SAMS Pub. Date: 15 December, 2001 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $39.99 |

Summary: Useless book.
Comment: Starting as a C and C++ pro, I was looking after a book to apply my knowledge to Windows using Visual C++. I came from other systems (unix...).
Target : get all basics in order to shorten by beginner stage.
For about a year, from a beginner to independant developper status, almost anything I was looking for in this book happened to be fruitless. Everytime the MSDN Help online from VC++ was much more helptful.
Let me give a simple example :
- you want to display a button with a bitmap. Nothing from the Index. You go to "Adding controls to your application" - none. "Bitmaps..." : nope.
VC++ help : you go to the index, "bitmaps" a few lines below "button" and... you got it.

Summary: The Bad Reviews are CONFUSED
Comment: Those reviews of this Sam's book that complain that it is a rehash, too basic, etc. are misguided. They must not have payed close attention to the scope and purpose of this book! I came to Visual C++ knowing ZERO about C++ or GUI (I thought it was spelled "gooey") or much else about programming. Yet, with this book I managed to create a useful, functional windows program in a few weeks that is now being utilized by a busy doctor's office. THIS BOOK IS FOR BEGINNERS, NOT HIGHLY EXPERIENCED PROGRAMMERS. Honestly, having looked into other books on the subject I have no idea how I'd have been able to learn what I did as quickly as I did if not for the Sam's book. Granted, it doesn't cover everything, but no book can. It covers more than enough of the basics to get up and running in a surprising amount of time. BEGINNERS: BUY THIS BOOK!

Summary: If you know nothing about VC++
Comment: I am just a college student and have no experience on Windows program before, but I only know C++. If you are just like me, starting VC with this book will make your life much easier. If you are a professional, use something more advance. This is book is just for beginner with C++ background. If you don't know about C++, don't use it because it won't teach you C++ on this book.
