Rating: Summary: terrible Review: This is a great book! I've been working the past few months to transition from VB to C++, and have worked through several books. But most of them took many concepts for granted that left me in the dark. This book explains VC++ from a VB standpoint and has answered all my questions that other books didnt even touch.

Rating: Summary: terrible Review: This is a terrible book. Do not waste your money. As an experienced VB developer new to C++, I found this book to be so poorly written and organized that it was almost totally useless. I've read piles of books on different languages and technologies so this is not a frustrated nubie complaining here. Don't be fooled by the title. After a sloppy review of C and C++ the book gets to it's real focus: Writing components for VB in C and C++. If this is your focus, you may find some useful info in a couple of chapters. Otherwise, don't bother. I recommend Core C++ by Victor Shtern. Very thorough and well written. Then just read the documentation that comes with Visual C++ before spending your money on another book.
Rating: Summary: good reference Review: this was gathering dust on my shelf.i used is the other day as it had a lot of good reference material.
