Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Perfect "beginner book" !
Review: I picked up the package and opened VB6 In Plain English at 6:00. It was 2:00 A.M. when I had to put it down. The title says it all - "...In Plain English..." I learned stuff I'd been fretting over for days !

Plan to keep it around for a long time.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good Reference
Review: The book makes a very good reference. That's about it. Don't rely on it as a tutorial because its not. There are not many sample problems to work on and most of them are very simple (not real world examples). One needs to have the full version of VB in order to build the ActiveX controls. The book serves as a good introduction, so you have to get a more advanced book (Visual Basic 6 from Scratch) to get some hands on, create useful applications, and really learn. The book had a few coding errors.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: It's good....but not good
Review: This book is excellent for a beginning VB programmer, or even a semi-intermediate VB programmer. It covers the basics and goes a little into other things. but if you want to get into web applications, or web anything, this is not the book for you. Otherwise, it is.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good stuff
Review: This book is very good if you are just starting out. However, you'll quickly outgrow it and be looking for an intermediate book. It covers all the standard tools well and touches on ActiveX and database programming.

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: In Depth and Interest Keeping!
Review: This book keeps the reader's attention and the interest stimulated! I read MS Press's VB w/Excel and found it quite boring. I am a beginner in the field and found this book advanced enough for someone willing to challenge their programming skills

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: one of my best references
Review: this has honestly got to be one of the best vb references i have ever read. it has almost everything in vb that you could wish to do as well as some examples so that you are not typing and trying. i consider this my vb bible i read it all the time when i need help.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good stuff
Review: This is a great beginners book. It's written in an easy to understand manner. It doesn't use the "I've been doing this type of thing for eons so I assume you have even though your a beginner" techno-geek speek. If your a beginner, get this book.
