PLEASE PROVIDE
This is the ultimate guide to Visual Basic objects and components -- the key to successful enterprise and web development with VB. It contains extensive sample code, plus real-world insight into every key VB object development issue. Peter Vogel starts with a detailed look at the issues involved with designing objects and their interfaces: how to choose which methods, properties, and events to use; build collections; and combine objects to create components. Next, he introduces each key object technology Microsoft provides for web and enterprise development, including the Component Object Model (COM), Active Server Pages (ASP), and the Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS). Discover how to create objects that pass data to ActiveX Data Objects; build components that work with Microsoft Transaction Server, and more. The book contains extensive, up-to-date server-side coverage, plus a practical introduction to Windows 2000 COM+ Services.
PETER VOGEL has been a professional developer for over 15 years. In addition, he is a Visual Basic and Microsoft development instructor for Learning Tree International who wrote Learning Tree's course on Web application development, now taught worldwide. He is editor of the Smart Access newsletter, the leading source for technical information on Microsoft Access. Vogel is based in Goderich, Ontario, Canada.
