Nice Book

This book is not bad. It does come with a working version of Visual Basic 4.0 which makes it a plus to have. However, the book explains the basics of VB and not much else. I learned some from this book, but there is still much more to learn. Not bad for the beginner, but not the best.

Great book for beginners!

This book is/ great for beginners in Visual Basic. The reading is very easy to understand. The sample programs in the book are very simple and to the point. If you can read one of those Teach yourself (VB, Delphi or another language) in 24 days, you can read this book in about 2 hours. I read Learn Visual Basic Now in about 3 days. The book has some weaknesses. One it does over simpfy some VB points.The great thing about the book, is you can run all the programs on your computer without buying the Visual Basic software because, it comes with its own version of Visual Basic with the source code from the sample programs in the book on 1 CD.Lastly, chapter 8 "Adding Artwork and Special Effects" was the best chapter in the book.
