Summary: Great startup book for Visual C++ 6.0!
Comment: This book is a must have for anyone who is starting up with Visual C++ 6.0 I had done almost no MFC programming prior to getting this book, and after reading it cover to cover, I have been able to write basic MFC applications. The book is also good at pointing you to the MS Reference CD locations for additional information that isn't covered. Though not a "bible" per se, it is a must have for Visual C++ beginners (you should know C however).

Summary: Not of much worth
Comment: Save you money for something better like teach yourself visual c in 21 days. The book is very big in size but that's it. Not much contents in it. It's written for programmers who don't know how to program in C++ and want to do programming in MFC. My advice to such an audience to grab two good books on for C++ programming and one for MFC. Lots of space is wasted with screen shots and cut-copy-paste of App-wizard generated code. Nothing is written on many important things like database connectivity. GUI is explained in detail but many other books cover even this topic in better and SHORTER way. Save you money instead go for this combination; buy first Robert's Lafore's "Object Oriented Programming using Turbo C++" for learning C++ and then buy "special edition using visual C++ 6" or "teach yourself visual C 6 in 21 days" to learn MFC.

Summary: lots of typos
Comment: The book is quite good in terms of how the author presents the topics, as well as his instructions. However, there are a lot of typos. I've read only chapters 11 & 12 and found at least 4 typos already (and I only skimmed through the pages). I don't know how many more I'd find did I read the text word by word. Would recommend this book for a beginner only as far as windows programming and MFC are concerned. An experienced programmer would find this book quite trivial.
