Synopsis

Meet the Challenge of Any Database Project with Visual Basic and ADOMastering Database Programming with Visual Basic 6 offers highly focused coverage of the techniques that make Visual Basic the ideal tool for database development. Assuming no prior experience with database programming, this book teaches you every aspect of the craft, from GUI design to server-side development to middle-tier implementation.

Coverage includes:
* Understanding data access architectures and technologies
* Understanding relational database concepts
* Getting acquainted with SQL, including the most important features of SQL Server 7 for the VB programmer
* Understanding ADO and what it offers your database application
* Using the visual database tools
* Using ADO 2.5 to access databases from within your VB applications
* Getting the most from SQL Server using T-SQL and stored procedures
* Simplifying client application coding with stored procedures
* Constructing data-aware classes
* Implementing middle-tier components and data-bound ActiveX controls
* Supporting remote data access
* Encapsulating database operations with ActiveX controls
* Accessing a database from within Web applications using Active Server Pages
* Building applications that work with Internet Information Server and Microsoft Transaction Server
* Mapping data structures to hierarchical Recordsets and making the most of disconnected Recordsets

Store Description

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
