Hello everyone,

I am wondering if anyone knows of a good visual basic book that teaches the language minus winforms or any other GUI technology. Basicly i would like a book that is full of coding examples relating to the visual basic language itself. I have been reading "Beginning VB2008" by christian gross. While it is a good book the author tends to use analogies to the extreme and interupts the flow of the book making it hard to learn from.

Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks
