Brian asked for decent books. Playboy is good because it is not decent. :rolleyes: On that note; I remember watching Platoon (I think) and the Bunny girls went and performed for the poor battle worn soldiers. What a great idea; Are they doing that for the Iraqi force at all? Would they have to wear Burkas though?

Hey All, I've just started my foray into he world of ASP.NET [the C# route] and so far I'm finding it very cool :cool:. Paul W, the good man that he is [;-p], has given me links to some very good online resources. I was just wondering if anybody know of any decent books/offline references that I could use when I'm sitting at my machine at home with no net connection... Any recommendations??? :-D Regards, Brian Dela :-)

Haven't seen Platoon (I think), but there's such a scene in "Apocalypse Now" - where the bunnies have to perform a performus interruptus due to the battle worn soldiers not that worn anymore :rolleyes:
Italian is a beautiful language. amare means to love, and amara bitter.

MS Press' "Inside C#" (Tom Archer) is a good one if you're taking the C# journey. It's not about ASP.NET but rather is an in depth look into the C# language itself, which I think would be useful if that's to be your primary tool.

Yep. I have Inside C# here in work beside me.. Good book. I've read it, more or less from back to front and it's probably the only book that I've done that. Regards, Brian Dela :-)

I can also recommend Jeff Prosise's Programming .NET book, although I expected to be in the same vein as his MFC book (i.e. Windows forms) the majority of it actually deals with ASP.NET. However, it does cover most things extremely well. If you wanna get into doing database driven stuff (i.e. loads of DataGrid's etc.) then I can also recommend Dino Esposito's ADO.NET and ASP.NET book (forgotten the precise title). -- Paul "Put the key of despair into the lock of apathy. Turn the knob of mediocrity slowly and open the gates of despondency - welcome to a day in the average office." - David Brent, from "The Office" MS Messenger: paul@oobaloo.co.uk Sonork: 100.22446

Hey Paul, Just looking at the Jeff Prosise book... [http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/search-handle-url/index=books-uk&field-author=Prosise%2C%20Jeff/026-7962134-7431621[^] :-)] Just wondering which of the 2 books are you referring to.. The Core reference or the one at the bottom? Or if you had the ISBN number then that'd be cool :-) [EDIT] Ignore me.. I'm being stupid... ones a Paperback version and the other is hardback!!! Duh Brian [/EDIT] Regards, Brian Dela :-)
