Product Description

Beginning .NET Web Services using Visual Basic .NET guides programmers with a working knowledge of VB.NET through the development of powerful and user-friendly Web Services. Web Services build on componentization via the Internet or an intranet, enabling a calling application to implement a service without requiring it to have prior knowledge of the service offered. The opportunities enabled by this technology have ensured that Web Services hold an important place in the .NET environment and have opened up the development possibilities available to programmers. This book will help you to develop your knowledge of Web Services using a teaching style that is designed to increase your confidence as you progress through the practical examples.

The vb version of this book has missing or corrupted mdf/ldf, February 10, 2003
I have the c# version of this book too as I am
learning vb.net and c#
The vb version of this book has a corrupted database file
and other 2 missing database files.
That makes 3 chapters which you wonder if the code is going to
ever work in this beginner book
For a book from Karli Watson after his brilliant book
'begining c#', his reputation for quality is not going to
hold water for people making his purchase. Certainly
after anyone spending money on this vb.net or c# version

of this book finds out that they are trying
to sell you a book with questions with no answers
I see other people can give the book 5 stars without
testing the downloadables. Don't make any sense.

A very friendly & quick learning experience, September 12, 2002
XML and XML Web Services are hot subjects, I should know having technically reviewed many books on them and also this book. So a book that tells the XML & Web services stories from a VB.NET perspective has got to be hot property - and this book is just that!

Content varies from using VB.NET to enumerate an XML document to developing Binary & SOAP Serialisation class's - there is no "kiddie" dialog; it is full of real information & succinct step-by-step real-world examples to try out.

It's a small & convenient sized book and that requires it to be fast-paced, progressive & well written: there is no getting bogged down in 70 page chapters of pure rocket science that send you into orbit. Best of all are the authors: they are down-to-earth, working along side you & sharing value - which makes for a very friendly & quick learning experience.

The authors use XML Validator to define XML documents, which is cool, however Microsoft have a free download of Microsoft XML Notepad ... which I found much quicker to use to develop schemas structures, however.
