What’s Great About this Book?
Who is this book for?
Wrox Beginning Guides are fast, entertaining and realistic. They cover an immense scope of material by getting straight to the coal face. All learning is practical and hands on, using the high bandwidth absorption of detail that only experimentation can deliver.
This book is suitable for VB programmers who have read a single general introduction, like Beginning Visual Basic, and want to get down to developing database applications for business. Database programming is a field on its own, and requires the assimilation of a wide range of information such a database theory, SQL etc. This book pulls all those threads together into a single, organised flow.
Who is the Author?
John Connell is a VB developer working for a large bank in downtown Chicago. The database applications he has developed at the bank are famous for their power, ease of use and reliability. John also lectures on VB at De Paul’s downtown campus and has taught VB on ZDU for Wrox Press.
