    Want to buy a VB.Net book

    Hello

    Can anyone tell me what is the the best VB.Net book. I having been programming in VB 6 at university for the last 2years, and l would say l am at an average skill level. I want to go on to programming in VB.Net, but unsure of what book would be the best one to buy. I want to start from the beginning in VB.Net and go onto some useful real world application examples. Does anyone know of any book, that is like this and, simple to read and understand.

    Many thanks in advance
    steve

    I have Mastering Visual Basic.NET by Evangelos Petroutsos. It wasn't designed to be read from Cover to Cover, which is what I wanted.

    Here it is on Amazon

    Have you bought VB.NET yet?
    If you have then you should look in the VS Knowlege Pack its got alot of sample chapters.
    That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
