Show me a good book for beginning to learn Visual Basic.Net
-
speaking as a self taught (or rather self teaching) vb.net programmer learning to program from a book with no prior programming experience(i'm assuming you have none) is quite difficult. and no one book is going to get you up and coding. rather be prepared to buy several books before you even start to code some reasonable applications. i don't mean to put you off. coding is great fun as anyone here will tell you:cool:. just saying be prepared for lots of frustration:confused:. anyways, for a gentle intro to anything i've always found the "Sam's Teach yourself..." series to be brilliant. try "Sams teach yourself Visual Basic.Net in 24 Hours" or "... in 21 days" You could then try moving onto "Even more VB.net" in the same series or search for something a bit more complicated. One you find a place to start and learn a bit you get to know what you want to know how to do and the technical names for it and find books more about that. Good luck

Get "Programming Visual Basic.NET for Dummies" mate. This book assumes you do not know anything. And teaches you like a dummy. You'll be surprised what you learn within a short space of time. To be honest with you, you will also need a great deal of time input. But it's fun. I am also teaching myself VB.NET, I began from scratch, and have not gone too far either, but I am somewhere. I will be happy to help, that will give me some bit of home wofk as well. It's only unfortunate, until end of may I will be putting all my time in my other course that I am sitting exams for. But Keep in touch mate. Benson dubeben2002@yahoo.co.uk;)
