David Mccarter's Vb Tips And Techniques

While there are many books on how to learn Visual Basic, none focus on the "bite-sized" tips and techniques that maximize a VB professional's productivity in the real, day-to-day programming world. McCarter's tips and techniques solve the kinds of "gotchas" professionals could learn only from many years of experience.

In his new book, veteran Visual Basic programmer David McCarter provides VB professionals with a vareity of important new tips and techniques designed to maximize day-to-day productivity. Those who enjoyed David's first book, "VB Tips and Tricks," will find the author's familiar style paired with content of special interest to intermediate and advanced developers.

The opening chapter includes essential tips for beginners that even more experienced programmers will find valuable (or may have forgotten). McCarter goes on to provide techniques that cover almost every major topic for intermediate and advanced VB programmers -- strings and arrays, disk and I/O, working with controls, etc. He also tackles more complex topics such as working with the Windows API, databases, the Internet, the AddressOf operator, VB runtime files, registering COM objects, and much more.
