    vb.net 2003 books recommendations

    Hi Everyone. I am going to take a VB.net class soon and was hoping to get a recommendation on a book that I can pick up beforehand and learn the basics. The class will be fast paced and I don't want to get behind...

    P.S. This is my 1st programming class.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    "VB tips and tricks"
    "Visual Basic.net Power Tools" (Sybex) - cover says its for advanced coders, but I can understand it so it can't be!

    HI,


    The very best book for a complete beginner is Sams Teach Yourself Microsoft Visual Basic .Net 2003 in 24 Hours, by James Foxall, ISBN 0-672-32537-3. He backs this up with a good web site at
    www.jamesfoxall.com where you can obtain a discounted copy.

    However, be warned that each tutor of VB.NET has their own idea of the order in which the language should be learned. Best of luck.

    The more I learn about VB.NET the more I like dBaseIII Plus

    Don't bring yourself down, man.
    I have seen quite a few of your post's.
    And if you claim to be a rookie, I can't wait to see what you can do in 10 years from now...
    I wish I could think of something witty to put in my sig...
