Rating:  - Full Samples for the book are Online and very cool
The person who wrote the previous comment didn't read the book's opening pages in the introduction. All of the 101 Samples in the book are online! Each one is very cool and runs right away. The samples in the book are snippets from those examples with plenty of explanatory text for each sample.
Rating:  - lots of info, bad organization
this book has a lot of info, but is not organzied very well.
e.g chapter 11 "key visual studio .net benefits" would require you to build the following chapters 3,4,5,7,8,54,55,57,73,76,79.
it gives a general idea, but not fully working examples where the reader can type and run,
Rating: - Useful!
I've found this book to be one of the most useful that I own. It has, literally, tons of code that (for once) is designed to be "real world", and includes actual error checking! As I migrate myself over from VB6, it's been really nice when I think "I know how to do this in VB6, I wonder how I do the same thing in .NET". I highly recommend.
