Product Description Programming Data-Driven Web Applications with ASP.NET provides readers with a solid understanding of ASP.NET and how to effectively integrate databases with their Web sites. The key to making information instantly available on the Web is integrating the Web site and the database to work as one piece. The authors teach this using ASP.NET, server-side controls, ADO+, XML, and SOAP. The authors will teach readers how to manage data by using ASP.NET forms, exposing data through ASP+ Web Services, working with BLOBs, and using cookies and other features to secure their data. A revolution in developing software is coming and it's called the .NET Framework. This broad Microsoft strategy opens doors to exciting new concepts such as Web services, which deliver the software you create as services that dish out data via XML over the Net. ASP.NET and ADO.NET are key elements to this new approach, improving the efficiency of Web page coding and database access respectively. Programming Data-Driven Web Applications with ASP.NET provides an excellent introduction to this brave new world of database-driven Web development for seasoned and novice programmers alike. The book dives into ASP.NET with a breakdown of its new features such as server side controls and event handling, Web services and session state management. It then clearly points out the advantages of ADO.NET--interoperability, a strong-typed programming model, higher disconnected performance, and better scalability. Readers will learn about managed providers and get a tutorial on ANSI SQL and the nitty gritty of database access. Plenty of example code is presented in both Visual Basic.NET and C#. The book explains how XML and SOAP--the protocol for exchanging XML data--work together as the transmission mechanism behind the scenes of .NET applications. The centerpiece of this new architecture is the Web services feature, and this text covers this powerful Web-callable interface well. ASP.NET and ADO.NET require somewhat of a new programming mindset from previous coding platforms, but this easy-to-read tutorial provides an easy entry point. --Stephen W. Plain Topics covered: .NET overview, ADO.NET managed providers, data binding, DataGrid control, templates, Web form server controls, validation controls, editing and filtering data, XML and SOAP, BLOB uploading and displaying, Web services, authentication, data caching, ASP.NET reference, and ADO.NET reference.

One Book for Begginer & Experienced Programmer,
August 17, 2005 If you want to learn ASP.NET using C#.NET for database applications programming from one book, than this is the best choice you can go with. There are lot of features which make this book different and unique from some others, but I should mention a few :
1. All examples code has been provided in C#.NET.
2. All example code is found to be working and the approach and logic are professional.
3. The major covering is about the Web controls(DataGrid and DataSet are the focal point).
4. Advanced topics such as XML,SOAP,BLOB,WebServices, Authentication, and Caching are added advantage.
The learner must have knowledge of Visual Studio for benifiting from this guide.The BEST ASP.NET Book,
November 30, 2003 This book describes how to use data driven componets that are in real world applications. It even has an appendix in the back describing ASP.NET events and their behavior. Great Book.sounds like SpinFX,
November 03, 2003 Great book,It covers the basics but also gives good grounding into the more complicated problems too. Wonder if the guys at Spinfx knew about this? Certainly seems to be same kind of thing. anyway.. recommended!! 5 Stars for Simplicity,
September 14, 2003 I liked this book for its simplicity. This book covers the ASP.NET controls from the data-driven applications perspective only and did the best job that can be done at it. Simple, precise and examples driven and gives you the understanding about the ASP.NET controls that you need. A great book for a beginners and good reference for an intermediate ASP.NET programmers.
