Rating: - From Scratch - a teaching manual
When I started studying WebClasses (May 2001) I looked at a lot of different places, the web, training sites, magazines, and books. In my research, I read just about everyone of the reviews on this book and also on Wrox Press VB6 Web Programming. I bought both.
I don't need to repeat the drawbacks of this book that the other reviews already have mentioned. However, I do wish to emphasize one item that some one else brought out. This book is a mainly a teaching book. Not in the since ... Read More
Rating: - If you are new to webclasses this book is a good start.

Rating: - Webclasses from Scratch- proceed with caution
This book will get you up and running - that's for sure. It does get hard to follow after chp6, expecially for the novice. It's worth the money if you need to know Webclasses. Liberty does a good job of helping you with bugs on his website. However, if you are new to VB , PLEASE look elsewhere for info on database connectivity such as Distributed Apps for VB6 (Microsoft Press). The EmployeeNet is a great example application, but the using ADO to go through an ODBC DSN is hardly cutting edge....
