ASP: Learning by Example

I've read other ASP books, but this book showed me alternate ways of using ASP, making me understand the subject more, in a way that you can not find in other books. The author explained and showed a complicated topic in simple terms. He summarized the subject into topics that really mattered and in an organized way, much like how a computer instructor would summarize his notes as preparation before delivering the subject in a classroom. I'd recommend the book to instructors, students and to anyone who would like to grasp the subject of ASP.

Excellent!

I am a beginning ASP developer and truly needed experience connecting to databases without needing to setup a DSN for each and every application that I make. This book shows extremely simple and understandable examples that make learning connections a sinch! Much appreciation to Robert on this book, it's a great help!

Great starter book

This book teaches the basics in a way I have seen no other programming book do it. I actually "learned" something instead of just reading examples and then wondering why it all worked. This book is short and easy to read, and the problems it gives you forces you to learn ASP. A great book, one of my favorites out of 6 ASP books.

Really Excellent

As a HTML web-designer I was always a bit afraid of database programming techniques, until I got this book. The really good structure introduces subjects as you go, it is actually possible to read this book. The examples are clear and simple, and each one is explained nicely, so you really can see how it works.It really introduced me to the subject so that I got interested. Now I can judge the subject, see what others have been doing and judge which of the deep technical books are good.In a nutshell, it was an easy way to demystify the whole subject. I have been very happy with the book and can recommend it to everyone interested in ASP.
