Customer Reviews

Excellent Technical Jumpstart

This was an excellent technical jumpstart into using Web.PB and other PowerBuilder 6 internet development tools. Fortunately, Powerbuilder 7 is much richer (read better) for web development. But unfortunately this book only covers PB 6 techniques. I would still recommend it for folks needing to get PB6 to do web stuff. There are even fewer books out on PB7 and EAS. I would also highly recommend "Distributed Application Development with PowerBuilder 6.0" by Michael J. Barlotta. (another Manning book).

An Incredible Book

This book covers every aspect of programming in PowerBuilder for the net. This is not a difficult subject, but it is complex. There are a lot of setup issues and there is a change in programming style from the traditional PowerBuilder. This book covers all of that in easy to understand style. It does so completely and in such a fashion as to make it easy to follow.I would recommend this book to all PowerBuilder programmers, you never know when you are going to be faced with a PowerBuilder project that has to be on a net.
