This guide contains hundreds of oversized screenshots to guide you through each task, screen by screen. There is a sample generic website created with Dreamweaver and Flash that the reader can modify to his or her specific needs.
I'm 57 and slogged through many chapters of about 8 books on this subject. THIS is the one that got me moving enough to get some things done.
Excellent, Quick and to the Point

I found this book to be just what I needed to get up and running fast with both products. I don't have time to wade through some text-heavy tome, and I really appreciate the screen shots that illustrate the steps. Since I don't spend every waking hour in front of my computer, I really needed a book that literally showed me how to work with Dreamweaver and Flash, and gather enough basics to apply my own material/content to the various features and techniques. If you're looking for a quick and basic introduction to Dreamweaver and Flash, then this book will take you there. I'm definitely going to try some other titles in this series.

I have found that I have a tough time with technical manuals that are primarily text... Case in point are the many MS manuals I have used for accreditation and upgrading. OK, and I'm a tad lazy too. I learn best by seeing and doing. The more senses involved, the better. When I complete a task once, I've got it. I am a huge fan of the Visual Quickstart books from Peachpit Press (I own many and recommend them as well) and have only recently come upon the Visually books. I like this book even more. Yes indeed. This book takes me through the app's new interfaces quickly and simply. It's very reasonably priced, even after converting Canadian dollars. A welcome addition to my library. Now if they only had one for Fireworks...
