Summary: Messy
Comment: Messy. I have been reading lessons; I haven't got any big picture. I did not know why it worked like that. The only place I could look for "big picture" was usually lab, at the end of each chapter. This book also lacks reference to ADO.NET object and interface model which is essential in multi-database engine applications. The most disappointing part is so-called "advanced" web service programming. What author thought was advanced level was really a basic level...

Summary: Good Resource for XML Editing
Comment: I have found "Developing XML Web Services and Server Components with Microsoft VB.NET" an invaluable tool in XML editor development. It is quite detailed about accessing and manipulating XML data.
Customer Rating:
Summary: More confusing
Comment: I was reading it as first book for most of the topics, It was total waste of time to read it.
Might help if you are already well expreinced with .NET but not for beginner
Customer Rating:
Summary: Very Poorly Written
Comment: Judging by the positive reviews, this book must have some merit but it is certainly not in the quality of its writing or its accuracy. Perhaps the editor was reassigned to Longhorn duties. Here are some examples of what you can expect in the first two chapters:
"A COM+ component exists in three states: exists and activated, exists and not activated, and nonexistent."
"The pool objects are not destroyed even after their release from the client application. COM+ retains the destroyed object in the pool for recycling..."
" If the value of the CanStop property is set to False, the SCM does not pass the Stop command to the service application."
It's main value to me is as a syllabus. You can use it to direct your search for better explanations on MSDN and, of course, everyone should have Troelsen's "C# and the .NET Platform" which is the best textbook I have read. Ever.
Customer Rating:
Summary: If you find this book useful, don't take the exam yet.
Comment: It is at a very basic level. It can be useful for starting in XML webservices, but not enough for the exam.
Some information is outdated.
It has errors. So does the practice test.
Doesn't cover at least one topic which is in the practice test.
The practice test doesn't tell you what is considered the correct answer.
If you find this book useful, you're not yet prepared for the exam.
