Product Description If you know the VB.NET basics, this book teaches everything else you need for developing and deploying database applications with Visual Basic .NET and ADO.NET, the new data access method for the .NET platform. That includes Windows as well as web applications, and both two-tiered and three-tiered applications. Along the way, you’ll learn how to use typed and untyped datasets, bound and unbound controls, data views, parameterized queries, and more. You’ll also learn how to use XML for defining data structures, Crystal Reports for developing reports, and the Server Explorer for working with a database.
Featured Customer Reviews  My review on this book,
June 29, 2007Another masterpiece from Murach's series,
May 11, 2006 I'm basically a Java programmer and I already own Murachs's JSP which is a class in itself. I had to involve in a project at my company which is totally developed using VB.NET. I came here to amazon to look for some books on Vb.NET and ADO.NET and I knew Murach should have written a title on this. My guess didn't go wrong and I just bought this book 2 days ago. I was able to master the basics of ADO.NET(first 6 chapters) in just 2 days which is really unbeleivable. This book is really amazing. This is truly geared towards a beginner and also serves as a reference for experienced.
Murach's idea of explaining the concept on the left hand side and examples for the explanation on the right hand side is really awesome. The topics are clearly illustrated with appropriate examples.
I'm now truly a fan of Murach's pen!  should look for better book,

Great book for beginner and professional!,
October 03, 2005 The seller responded promptly to this transaction and book was in excellent condition! Would use again and highly recommend to others....Practical Book,
September 23, 2005 I took on the project of constructing a database application to track our customers since there was nothing out there off the shelf that would do exactly what we needed done. I had not programmed in 12 years and did not know a first thing about VB.NET or object-oriented programming. The book is so well structured that I managed to build a database application from the ground-up while learning to program all over again within 6 months - it would have taken shorter but the only times I could dedicate to the project was nights and weekends. And guess what; after I beta-tested the program and ironed out the bugs, the program never even crashed once! On average 15 concurrent users are on the program and enter about 200 transacions daily. This book helped make my project a success.
