There are better books out there to learn VB.NET
This book is way too elementary. It is also hard to use it as a reference book as it's not organized very well. If you have any programming experience at all with programming, you should consider some other books. I've had good success with Wrox, O'Reilly, and Microsoft Press books. Programming C# from O'Reilly was good.
Lacking command appendix
As if learning any high level language from a book wasn't hard enough - This text seems devoid of any elements that would make it a usefull reference, i.e. no VB command appendix. Have a specific question with respect to VB code? Look elsewere. The organization is as clear as my TA's thick accent.
Good first book on VB.NET
This book has clear definitions, text, and examples. It is a good first programming book at the college freshman level. Experienced programmers are going to find it repetitive. I really like the fact that I have only caught one error in the book, which is remarkable for a programming text.
