Summary: Too much theory. Not enough business.
Review: You Must Read this Book if you really want to understand MTS using VB6.I have been a Software Engineer for over 8 years and I believe this is the most authoritative and complete book of its kind. The author does an excellent job explaining the architecture for COM and MTS. I particularly found the sections about transaction processing, security, and debugging MTS to be extremely helpful. Each of these sections goes much deeper in theory with clear explanations than several books on the same subjects combined. OK, let me make this clear: As the book's title "Professional" suggests, this book is not for a beginner. It's my opinion that unless you are at least an intermediate VB programmer who understands basic COM concepts, this book is not for you - buy a beginner's book. If you have solid VB skills and you want to enhance them by learning MTS, I highly recommend you read this book. Study and learn from it (yes, it takes effort- no fast ticket to knowledge.) It will be worth it. I would give this book 10 stars if I could.
