| This book is for programmers with some basic experience of Visual Basic .NET, who want to begin
programming database applications.
It might be useful if you have some limited experience of Access, although this is not strictly necessary.
Note that this book is not an introduction to Visual Basic .NET. If you are completely new to Visual
Basic .NET, you will probably find Beginning Visual Basic .NET (Wrox Press, ISBN 1861004966) a better
choice to get you off the ground.
Likewise, this book is not aimed at getting experienced VB6 developers up to speed with the changes
between VB6 and Visual Basic .NET. If you fall into this category, try Professional VB.NET (Wrox Press,
ISBN 1861004974) instead.
Visual Basic .NET is tightly coupled to very comprehensive and flexible data access technologies, so the
potential range of things that might fall under the title of this book is huge. |
