Customer Reviews

Great book to get you started...

This is the book I was looking for for a long time. It is a good book for programmers familiar with visual programming. Mr.McMahon grabs the bull directly by the horns. The book gives you a quick grab on how to handle the visual aspects of VC++. Most other books I have read have endless explanations on the topic and print endless pages of coding which scares off many newbies and still do not make you productive. This book...brings you up to speed with Visual C++.It should be the first book you should read. Once you are on your way then there are other fine books which go deeper in the topics.

A great how-to book: Concise and clear

This is a great book to get someone up and running with Visual C++ without having to read hundreds of pages. The format is very clear and the explanations are concise and right to the point. I wish all technical books are written this way - who has time to read and digest a 10-inch manual! I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn and utilize the power of Visual C++ quickly.

Good for VC++6 beginners

If you are a VB++6 programmer or non programmer at all and want to learn VC++6 programming, this book is for you. It describes the VC++6 setup, basic C++ programming syntex, basic VC++6 programming skills and general software development knowledge, but does not cover much advanced skills. This book shows a bigger but not deeper picture than what you may expect from a C++ programming book.
