Synopsis

Covers VisualStudio.Net This book/CD-ROM package explores a different approach to learning Visual Basic 6 & VisualStudio.net than most programming books on the market: it introduces practical applications that the reader can follow, e.g. developing an MP3 player, compression techniques, and playing multimedia files. Each chapter focuses on developing a complete application. The chapters begin with general information about the application, followed by its complete source code. Rather than just read theories, the reader writes applications and then learns how they work. The practical applications from each chapter can be used immediately, so the rewards of learning are quick and extensive. Each chapter is self-contained, allowing the reader to ?skip? to specific topics of interest. Secondary topics include 3D Graphics, the Internet, and file formats.
