Book Description
It ain't the Marines! This bootcamp is intensive training for everyone who's serious about learning Microsoft Visual Basic (VB) 5. Based on a sold-out series of seminars, the "drill" includes lessons, exercises, and example projects. This package prepares novices and seasoned programmers to march into the Microsoft VB certification exam and ace it-or simply to home their Visual Basic skills. Because the authors originated the Bootcamps and have trained thousands of programmers at them, they really know how to teach this complex topic. They've included hundreds of sample test questions... noted special "gotchas" to avoid during VB development... and, for users of previous versions, have even flagged all the hot new features and enhanced performance aspects of VB5.
