Best Book for Visual C++ .net?

[Mutty]

I'm looking for a good book to learn about Visual C++ .net I have a moderate amount of experience with C and C++, and have used older versions of Visual Studio, but never felt completely comfortable in the environment. Most books I've looked at concentrate too heavily on language, not enough on Visual Studio, etc for me. Any suggestions are welcome! -mutty

Are you asking for a book on C++/CLI ( that is, managed C++ ) ? Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

If your are specifically looking for .NET stuff (i.e. managed extensions) I have no idea. For learning visual studio and MFC I'd recommend: -Practical Visual Studio C++ 6.0, Bates & Tompkins, ISBN 0-7897-2142-2 deals with an older version of visual studio, but it's a very good introduction -Visual C++ .NET bible, Archer & Whitechapel, ISBN 0-7645-4837-9 mostly MFC related, but under the VS.Net enviroment. Bit in at the deep end compared to the book above, but written for the right version of VS Have fun! Cheers, Mark
