 Nice Reference ... Not For Learning ADO.NET ... Also ... C# C# C#
First let me say pretty much everything in here is written in C# ... I almost think they shouldn't advertise that they have VB in here. I write all of my apps in C# personally, but write both languages. ((and was at one time even an old school asp classic guy)) All of my sites run from asp.net/c# dlls now.
br /
br /The description says it ... it is a book designed for developers. This isn't designed for people trying to learn ASO.NET. Make this your second book, after you have a firm grasp on it, and have programmed a handful of examples.
br /
br /OH, AND THIS IS A ADO.NET USING C# BOOK ... there must be a few lines of VB in here somewhere for them to be able to say there is. Can't believe someone else's review hasn't mentioned this.
br /
br /ANYWAY ... for all of you that are wanting to get better with ADO.NET that are using it already ... but not well. This book is PERFECT. It is a great book to hone in the skills, and have sitting on your desk during development.
br /
br /=====
br /
br /NOW .. anyone learning ADO.NET for ASP.NET ... that wants a great book to pickup both. Grab the book ...
br /
br /Build Your Own ASP.NET 2.0 Web Site Using C# VB
br /
br /That book is available here on Amazon ... and it will give you nice lead in on ASP.NET using BOTH VB.NET and C# ... and it will get you started using ADO.NET.
br /
br /=====
br /
br /On a side note, if you are just trying to learn sql statements, and are really at the beginning at all of this ... Sams Teach Yourself SQL in 10 Minutes
br /
br /Sams Teach Yourself SQL in 10 Minutes
br /
br /Is a great book to get you started writing sql statements, joins, and all that in a flash ... I buy that book for all my friends that are just starting with databases.
br /
br /Take care all ... hope this helps.
br /
br /****
br /4 stars because it says it has VB, when it is clearly C# samples.
 A Door Stop
It seems that some Authors don't take the time to run their code...
br /
br /This book is riddled with code examples that leave out key components.
br /
br /Example: Ch.7.7 - "Displaying Images from a Database in a Web Forms Control"
br /
br /The code behind references Web Form objects that were never discussed. (Surprise!)
br /
br /If you're looking for an abbreviated book on ADO.NET "Concepts", and don't really care about actually seeing working code, then this book is ok. If you need a concise guide, then don't bother. This book requires the reader to take a lot for granted.
 Tips and Tricks with ADO.NET unrevealed
The book explains the ADO.Net concept completely, with examples and also explains the advanced features that would other wise have been difficult to be brought in practice. While designing and developming an ASP.Net application, ADO.net plays vital role.
br /
br /This book is THE MUST for applications that need large database interactions. This book acts as the bible to the ADO.Net techniques. Great work.

A real good one
I have read this book completely. If you are looking to develop your skills in ADO.Net or not feeling confident about your noesis you must have read this book. Once you finished it gives a huges amount of confidence in you. It doesn't cover each and every aspect of ADO.Net but it explains the various essential concepts behind ADO.Net in a clear way by dividing it into topics and more importantly it doesn't miss anything and it is a must have book for reference.
Example focused book.
This is the indepth example book I have seen for using ADO.NET for getting connected to databases. The examples in the book are just great and will give you a complete view of what goes on with database applications. Starting with the fundamentals of ADO.NET, walks through the basic principals of the new object model, and what you can do with the object model.
br /I would recommend this book to everyone - ADO.NET is such a fundamentally different approach to data access from Microsoft, that we will have to learn again from scratch, and this is the book to get the foundations right. I have found this to be invaluable in getting up and running with ADO.NET.
