No problem! Since I'm just about to try to upsize an Access database to an ADP for the first time, it will be quite a while before I'm ready to tackle .NET.

However, I'm having to educate myself on my own time since on my job assignments, management wants me to continue using the tools which I have demonstrated I can produce effective and efficient results. So it may some time before I'm far enough into the book to do an adequate evaluation.

Two were very positive, two were very negative, and one was from the author himself. So, by reading those comments, I am confused by what the book offers. Once you've had a chance to get into this book thoroughly, could you post a 'Book Report' for everyone on the list? Thanks!

I just received it on Monday, and so far It is looking like what I need. I had it shipped from bookpool.com for $36.50 + shipping (lists for $59.99). It is published by Microsoft Press and it's author is Rick Dobson.

I'm just beginning to dive into it, and am curious if anyone can recommend a good place to start learning. Is there a preferred book or website that demonstrates how to create a simple .net application? I am looking into asp.net, as I want to start developing web applications that connect to SQL2K. Any direction is greatly appreciated.
