Synopsis

Are you still working in VB6? Do you feel like Wrox has forgotten about you? Well, we do care... and to make it up to you we've just released a VB6 book that tackles the practical issues that VB6 programmers are facing today.

In 2003, VB6 is still the most popular programming language. But the demands of programming have changed massively since its release. Now programmers need to contend with Web programming, XML, Web Services, and COM+ is more important than ever. For professional VB6 programmers, this book will help you push the limits of what VB6 can do... showing how to go beyond drag and drop GUI development, and get real power out of VB6.

As well as a 650-page book giving you up to date advice, tips, and guidance on VB6 programming, Professional VB6 comes with a CD containing five other VB books in electronic form, ten additional case studies from existing Wrox books, and code examples. The five books electronic books are:

Visual Basic 6 UML Design and Development
Professional Visual Basic 6 Web Programming
Professional Visual Basic 6 Project Management
Professional Visual Basic 6 MTS Programming
Fast Track VB.NET
