Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wrox does it again!
Review: Excellent job! I have found Wrox books are technically accurate, as well as easy to read.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: I don't understand how it can possibly get a 4 stars
Review: For every topic, it just outline the subject without going to the detail. You can't possibly get anything out of this book.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: DO NOT BUY!
Review: I am dedicated to WROS press (except for this book)!!! This book was a BIG binding of fluff. Try Robert Jennings' Database Workshop: Microsoft Transaction Server.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I am very much intrested in knowing maore details about MTS
Review: I am intrested wheathet THe MTS Engine how actually the Data Base is Opening And Closeing if data base etc

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: No experience necessary!!!
Review: I developed C++/Delphi client/server applications for years, but never had any Visual Basic or COM experience. Within an hour, I had my first 3-tier VB6 application up-and-running connected to our DB server using MTS-enabled COM components. The material is entry-level--I highly recommend "Programming Distributed Applications With COM and Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0" (Ted Pattison/MS Press) for a more detailed look. These two books are perfect companions and are all you'll need for writing DNS applications using VB, COM/DCOM, MTS, and MSMQ.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Goodness
Review: I love WROX publishings. They do a great job

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's a perfect book!!
Review: I want to know MTS & MSMQ in NT option pack, but There is no book which describe on it. But This book is perfect guide using those S/W. And you get detail information how to use ASP with MTS, and how to make server component with VB. Anyway I solved my problem through this book!!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A book not worth purchasing
Review: I'm generally very happy with WROX books, but this one fails in a number of categories if you are looking for detailed information about MSMQ.

There is very little discussion about MSMQ from a network perspective. It doesn't address how to setup MSMQ in an enterprise environment -- PECs vs. BSC vs. IC, etc. There are lots of code samples, but most of them focus on the non-MSMQ DNA aspects of distributed programming. The example architecture is also simplistic to the point of not being usable in a real environment. A client-VB app running as the interactive user on a destination machine is less than desirable.

The authors also missed a number of details -- the error handling isn't even right. In VB, code is not executed past an Err.Raise call.

A dissapointing book from an otherwise impressive publisher.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Clear, concise and well-written
Review: If you are a developer trying to make sense of MTS and MSMQ and want to learn how to integrate these technologies into either VB apps or with web sites using ASP, then this book is for you. The book features good technical information on the technlogies themselves and also include a automobile ordering system example that uses MTS and MSQM. The only downside of the book is that they make too much of Microsoft specific browser technologies such as IE's RDS component and certain DHTML that won't work in other browsers. This doesn't detract from their coverage of MTS and MSMQ, but it seemed they went a bit overboard at times promoting non-compatible Microsoft browser technologies. Overall, an excellent book that will fully explain the secrets of MTS and MSMQ.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good Explanation for the concepts behind MTS and MSMQ
Review: If you are looking of a concise summary of MTS and MSMQ, this the one book you should read especially since the authors cover ground not covered in the manuals.
