Looks like you forgo
Most Useful book I've ever bought
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This book is truly excellent, it covers everything that you ever have to do when working with VB and databases. It has very many examples, which are included on the CD and do really work!! These examples are very clearly explained and help a great deal in understanding some of the more complex topics. I would recommend this book to everyone who uses VB.
Excellent!

If you want to learn to develop database apps using VB5, grab this one! Unlike some other teach-u-one-example books, it covers a lot of practical techniques of db programming. Most examples in the book are fully explained. No nonsense, straight-forward.
All topics covered...

Pretty good book for teaching someone new in your area but, if you're looking for in depth database coverage the online help is just as good if not better. This book still dwells on Jet and the ODBC/RDO section is pretty weak. The Client/Server How-To had better coverage of RDO than this. If you are looking for a good Jet Engine book this one could do or "Jet Database Engine Programmer's Guide 2nd ed" is a more in depth coverage. If you were looking for ADO examples, don't bother. There is only one paragraph in the back of the book on ADO.
Good examples for many topics

Starting with the simplest possible examples, this book rapidly progresses to cover a wide variety of intermediate (and a few advanced) database programming techniques. The examples are very clear for the most part, though they can be a bit redundant. Some readers may appreciate the incremental modification of the code examples, but to me it just looked like filler. Good coverage of DAO, ODBC, ISAM, and SQL topics. The book also contains a very helpful section on Crystal Reports.
