Summary: A waste of time and money
Comment: Computer books seem to break down into one of three major categories: theoretical concept overviews, exhaustive step-by-step learning guides, or pinpoint reference guides (e.g. O'Reily In-A-Nutshell). This book is a muddled mix of all three without achieving the benefits of any. It's too lightweight and disorganized to be a reference manual and too cursory to be a learning guide.

I am over 100 pages into this and I am not quite sure if I have learned anything useful. It was clearly written without an objective in mind, which is evident chapter after chapter. It was comforting to see that many others share my opinion. I wish I had read these reviews before purchasing.

Summary: very bad quality
Comment: This book is very poorly written---it doesn't teach you anything. I've read about 100 pages now and still couldn't find something real about InterDev. All the menus, toolbars, buttons in this book are for older versions of InterDev; I'm using V6.0(SP3) and can't find any of those mentioned in the book. Most of the description are just pointless. These guys don't know about InterDev---that's what I get from reading this book.

Summary: Great How To & Reference Book
Comment: If you have already worked with ASP, this book is for you. It covers all in one place, things that could easily take 5-6 books to cover! If your looking for in-depth documentation & many examples, this book may let you down, however, if your looking for a quick start, here it is! This book when combined with the online MSDN library, is a fabulous How To!

Summary: Not good book for anyone
Comment: I bought this book with intetnion it is going to be advanced book about programming VID 6.0 as the title says. Instead it is book badly written with no examples of any help. The part about DHTML is talking about dynamic postitioning, but there are no examples for useful things like form validating and so on. Part about ASP is also bad and not advanced at all. Authors should think once again if they are going to write something like this book. Don't buy it. Point.

Summary: This 2nd edition is not much better, if the first was bad
Comment: I saw author's comment that this second edition has so much improvement over the first, so I bought one copy. I haven't read the first edition, but this second edition is hardly an improvement over anything, IMHO. I think the problem is that this book doesn't talk about problem solving, nor provide any insight to the product (VI 6)inner function. Ironically this is a book from Microsoft press.
