    Post VB book

    I know it's been talked about before, but new books and resources are out all the time. I was wondering what is the best book anyone has used to teach yourself VBS. I've already learned a little about C++, so I have a general understanding of how "programming" works. So I'm looking for a book that starts with basics, but moves to the intermediate level relatively quickly.

    Specifically, I'd like to learn the area of VB that aids in networking. (i.e. pushing down patches, checking registry entries, putting out logon messages, etc.)

    As always, all help is appreciated.
    if(post.eof()){SigBox.setText("Have A Day.");}

    There are plenty of VB books around as it's such a big programming language that can cover every aspect of windows.

    As always, books like O'Reily and Wrox are a pretty good bet and that's one of the reasons why they are popular.

    Have a look for something that will fit what you want it for, ie Networking with VB, have a flick through it and see if it looks any good.

    Other than that, use Google to search for examples of what you're trying to do - it'll be on the Net somewhere!

    One I have is Advanced MS VB 6.0 Second Edition by Microsoft press. That might help, too.

    I use Microsoft's Advanced VB 6.0 book as well, not a bad book if you know programming theories already. From the first chapter it jumps right in there. By chapter three you are dealing with ADO and SQL stuff.
