This book and Programming Visual Basic .NET by Francesco Balena have answered virtually all of my questions about building production distributed database applications using XML Web services. If you're interested, you can download a sample of my working code at www.opointe.com

If you have a knowledge of VB or C#, this book does a pretty good job teaching you how to create your own Web service and use other out there on the Internet, even if you don't have prior experiences. This book assumes you have VS.NET. If you don't have it, it won't be helpful. VS.NET makes using and especially creating Web Services easy and this book tells you how easily you can do it.Here are why I think the book is good. * Presentation is clear. You'll know what you'll be learning in each chapter. * Sample code is provided on the web.* No talking down.* The authors really mean "step-by-step". Little rooms for mistakes.Bad things.* Because the book explains the basics, you may be able to find all the information on the Web. You'll probably need more time searching and filtering them, though.

C# and VB

I liked the way that the examples are in VB and C# and that (unlike the ADO Step By Step book), only the code is repeated.This book is packed with information, but is wasy to follow and the examples build up into a useful web service to process credit cards.This is the best web services book I have read.
Great Book
