Summary: The vb version of this book has missing or corrupted mdf/ldf
Comment: I have the c# version of this book too as I am
learning vb.net and c#
The vb version of this book has a corrupted database file
and other 2 missing database files.
That makes 3 chapters which you wonder if the code is going to
ever work in this beginner book
For a book from Karli Watson after his brilliant book
'begining c#', his reputation for quality is not going to
hold water for people making his purchase. Certainly
after anyone spending money on this vb.net or c# version
of this book finds out that they are trying
to sell you a book with questions with no answers
I see other people can give the book 5 stars without
testing the downloadables. Don't make any sense.

Summary: Fantastic book! Makes it all seem so easy...
Comment: Web Services are such a hot subject these days, and everybody thinks you need to be a programming guru before touching this subject. Well, this books proves the contrary! After 300 pages of easy-to-read and easy-to-understand material, you'll have a good understanding of how web services work.
The book has plenty of code examples and the material is very well structured. The chapters I liked the most are "Exposing Data as a Web Service" chapters, since exposing database information is a very common task for web service programmers.
I highly recommend this book as an introductory course to Web Services using Visual Basic.NET.

Summary: A very friendly & quick learning experience
Comment: XML and XML Web Services are hot subjects, I should know having technically reviewed many books on them and also this book. So a book that tells the XML & Web services stories from a VB.NET perspective has got to be hot property - and this book is just that!
Content varies from using VB.NET to enumerate an XML document to developing Binary & SOAP Serialisation class's - there is no "kiddie" dialog; it is full of real information & succinct step-by-step real-world examples to try out.
It's a small & convenient sized book and that requires it to be fast-paced, progressive & well written: there is no getting bogged down in 70 page chapters of pure rocket science that send you into orbit. Best of all are the authors: they are down-to-earth, working along side you & sharing value - which makes for a very friendly & quick learning experience.
The authors use XML Validator to define XML documents, which is cool, however Microsoft have a free download of Microsoft XML Notepad ... which I found much quicker to use to develop schemas structures, however.
