I snatched this book up as soon as I saw it. I have three other of Roger Jennings' database books and they are great.

This one was a little disappointing. It has good information in it and it is informative. But, percentage-wise at least, it seems to contain a lot more filler, like unneeded code. The style of writing seems so different from his other books that I wonder how much of the actual writing Mr. Jennings did himself.

It's definitely not a bad book. Overall it was worth the money. Maybe the second edition will add more substance. I would actually rate it at 3 1/2 stars, but that's not an available option.

Excelente libro, le agregaria algun truquito mas, pero esta todo, sirve como para arrancar y profundizar en los temas. Muy buena guia.

Having this book a month ago would have saved me at least $1000. Which is about how much I had to pay someone to write code that this book clearly points out was already written and available by Microsoft.

That's the bottom line. This book is a time and money saver for anyone writing VB 2005 code that uses a database.

This book does a better job of explaining what happens behind the vs2005 data object wizzards then many of the other books that just show you how to use them.
