Jim Maloney covers allot of ground and he does it without being cute, like some other authors. It sounds like he's been dealing with students in many seminars. This book is a very good introduction to many important subjects. It's a great place to start learning about VB6.
 Weak in the hands on lab(s). July 22, 2001

The book is well written and reads easily however the lab is one long program on a video store. I have found that books with these examples tend to get bogged down. Using "one long program" instead of different examples with each chapter, makes it difficult for the reader to skip a chapter because you have to pick up the program where the skipped chapter ended. If you are one who likes the one lab/program, then I think you will like this book better than I did. Otherwise try the Wrox series.

This book is a breath of fresh air, not only because it's chock full of real-world examples, but because it's written clearly, concisely and doesn't take up 3 feet of bookshelf space. Perhaps more importantly, it also manages to explain the kind of subject matter that is usually reserved for experienced programmers, but in a way that a novice will embrace and understand.It covers all the major topics that VB programmers encounter, with useful examples (not just theoretical applications of the information), and without waffle or padding. It's so hard to find a book that cuts out all the junk and gets straight to the point, but Mr. Maloney has done it. I think this book is absolutely priceless.
 Distributed COM Application Development Using Visual Basic 6 February 23, 2001

Very poor book. A lot of useless for VB programmer theory; several chapters on VB controls and technics that have no connection to the book topic - Distributed COM; too little about MTS, nothing practical about Distributed COM without MTS.
You will know VB COM after this book December 16, 2000

I had read "Beginning VB6 Objects" by Wrox...mistake. Thankfully I was re-programmed by this book on vb com and able to distribute an n-tier app across a large network. Without Jim's book I don't know how it would have happened. There could have been more MTS material since it is a pretty big part of distributing an app, but the MTS chapters in here give you enough to get by.
