Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Yuck! Many bad designs
It ain't instant results, buddy. It is quick-and-DIRTY results, as the book presents a lot of bad designs. Where is the multi-tier design? Some chapters in the book show how to put those SQL queries right in aspx pages where only user interface code should be in. Some chapters show how to spit datasets out of business logics. Well it is quick, but should you want to expand or fix things, you would have to redesign and code all over again. Trust me I used to do the quick and dirty works many times ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - THIS IS IN VB ONLY, PEOPLE!!
How I wish descriptions of these asp books would indicate the LANGUAGES used!! That is a big deal. Very seldom does anyone say which language is used. Like, it isnt important???



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Title and Description of this book is misleading
[...] ASP.NET 2.0 Instant Results helps you quickly create dynamic Web pages with ASP.NET 2.0." This description made me think this book would offer "step-by-step" examples of how to go about designing and building .net applications from scratch. In fact, the opposite is true.

This book works in reverse, by offering you several already made applications, then the authors discuss how the applications function, the classes, controls and so forth. The only instruction you will get to "quickly ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Buyer beware
This book is absolutely not for beginner. Do not buy this book unless you know how to set up your Database with Sql Server 2005 and work with IIS. The book does not give any instruction on how to do this. Try to use the example and upload to your site and see what happen. I wonder if the author tried their examples online to see if it works before finishing this book. Chapter 5 is a disaster, after you almost complete the examble, you know that the authorization does not work, you have to go to their site ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Programming Language
The only reason I give this book a 4-star review is the fact that I wish it said somewhere in the description that the code provided as VB, and that there was no C# examples.

The examples work very good for the most part, with a few corrections and the publisher's forum for this book is a great source of info. Imar, one of the authors, has been very helpful in helping me translate one of the chapters to C#.

Definitively not a beginner's book.
