Customer comments on this selection.
 I would avoid this book. Tries to cover every topic, but not enough details
They give you an introduction to just about every thing you can think of in ASP.NET. The big problem though is the chapters do not give nearly enough details. They give you an overview, maybe 1-2 very simple examples, and that's it! If you are creating a web app for business purposes you will surely encounter many ASP issues that are NOT addressed in this book. In the end, you will end up buying 2-3 more books to make up for the lack of details in this one, therefore I would advise to pass on this book.
 Very Easy to Understand - Humoristic Writing
Very well organized book for starter.
br /
br /Reason giving only 4 stars is while the first few chapters has both C# and VB source codes, when it gets to later advanced topics, only VB codes are available.
Pretty good All in one Reference
I have to say I'm rating this product without completly reading the whole thing, that said... I can say the book is a real useful tool to introduce you into the basics of dotNET programing.
br /
br /I've programming in VBscript (ASP) pages for years, and I've been meaning to start with the dotNET stuff for quite a bit now. This book is writen in the same way as all for dummies books, very easy to follow, and very straight forward, however it's exactly about what the title says: a reference.
br /
br /To actually learn dotNET programming from zero, you have to learn a hell of a lot of stuff! Thats why this book is so good. If you have never programmed before and want to jump in to the dotNET world, this book provides you with the basics of almost everything you need. BUT this is the thing: You will be a bit confused if you don't know any programming at all and you start reading from the beggining, for its been perfect so far, but for newbies I guess it would be confussing so you will find your self skipping to later chapters to get some introduction into HTML or Visual basic.net or C#. The book will save you a lot of time and money if you have some basic knowledge of HTML and server side programming, but if you none at all I would start with the Visual Basic or C# part, or even HTML if you need it.
br /
br /So the conclusion is It's a very useful compilation of 8 books that you would normally buy separatly if you had NOOO IDEA at all of developping websites with programming languajes. If you have some basic knowledge you will probably not read all of it, but hey! its a reference book for dummies! So as I said, pretty good buy and very complete. Of course you will need to get other docummentation in order to get a higher knowledge of decent dotNET programming.
br /
br /One thing i noticed is that the main code examples are in both languajes C# and VB.net but sometimes it only mentions the C# cases, so it seems its more focused to this languaje.
 Very Impressed
My company throws different projects in my lap and I have to scramble to learn new technology in order to meet the deadline.
br /I was very impressed on how this book helped set up things I needed in Asp.net.
br /Easy to find things and very easy to follow with plain explanations.
br /ANd, with C++ and VB reference, I was very pleased.
br /It might not have ALL the answers, but no book ever does.
br /As a beginner, I was very pleased.
good compilation
Saved me some money combining several books. Easy to read and understand.
