This book is excellent. Highly recommend if having trouble learning Visual Studio. Not what I'd hoped for, July 19, 2008 I started a new job a while back and found myself using VS2005 for the first time after years of using VS6. I was looking for a book to get me up to speed, and there are few titles out there. While this book had some useful info I found that it wasn't terribly useful for a programmer writing C++ in a non-.NET environment. Most of the coding examples are in other languages and mainly targeted towards .NET. If you're working in that environment you may find this more useful than I did. No codes samples available, March 06, 2007 An excellent book. Lots of examples. Unfortunately, you will have to type in all the code examples yourself as the Sams Publishing web page does not have any downloads even though the back covers says that they are available. Great breakdown on the tool for novices and professionals alike!, February 20, 2007 This book did a great job of revealing the breadth of features available in the product. I think this book is quite useful to not only those that are just getting started but those that are seriously considering implementing VS/TFS in the organization. Even if you are an experienced user of Visual Studio you will certainly learn several new tricks. In fact, I reference this book with my clients who are interested in rolling out VS and TFS. Microsoft Visual Studio Unleashed, January 10, 2007 The book has been a disappointment; it assumes that the reader knows almost everything there is to know about the Visual Studio 2005 program, and the explanations are vague, and far and few in between. I just wasted valuable money buying this book. I should have checked its contents at the local bookstore first before purchaing it. This book is poorly written.
