Editorial Review:
Amazon.com Review:
Much of advanced Web development involves database access, and one of the best tool sets around is Microsoft's Visual Studio. Building Web Database Applications with Visual Studio 6 offers hands-on training in this development platform and gives readers the techniques to build powerful and elegant applications, as well as a solid understanding of the IIS architecture.
Author Dan Rahmel puts his years of Visual Basic experience to good use in this targeted yet comprehensive book. The focus is database access, which translates into in-depth coverage of ActiveX Data Objects (ADOs), but it also explores such important topics as browser capability detection and security. The book begins with nice overviews of IIS, VBScript, and ADO. Code examples immediately illustrate how to establish connections and access data. To explore the various techniques you'll need to use in real-world development, the author walks the reader through the construction of a drill-down interactive report. This example, which enables users to search for orders and view order details, is applicable to almost any commercial Web site.
This isn't just a nuts-and-bolts title, however--it also shows how to design sites smartly by using Visual Modeler and Database Designer. Advanced topics such as distributed computing and DHTML intranet development give it real depth. Anyone venturing into the wooly world of database-driven Web development should consider this book. --Stephen W. Plain
Topics covered: IIS overview, VBScript overview, ActiveX Data Object (ADO), ADO application design, interactive drill-down reports, sessions, browser capabilities, Database Designer, CDO e-mail, security, ActiveX DLL design, IIS applications, DCOM, MTS, Visual Modeler, DHTML, Windows 2000 Active Directory, advanced ADO data types, Java-based charting, SQL primer, and team development.

This was an incredible display of technical editing wizardry. It's a shame that this is his best edited book.

Being a Visaul Basic and Visual C++ developer and confused about how the different web tools, technology and terminology relate in today's software world, I was looking for a book that would introduce me in a systematic fashion to Microsoft's way of developing on the web when I came across this book at a bookstore. I have read almost half of it and have looked through remaining of the pages and I find this book EXCELLENT. I cant wait to read the remaining of it.

I purchased this book for one reason, to learn how to use Visual Studio in a fasion to reduce my development time. This book is packed with good information, but I fear a novice would lose himself. The books author covers large amounts of material very quickly and the layout could be better. At particular pionts in the book where I was following the examples, I became confused on what the author wanted me to do. Inspite of the errors in the way the examples flow and explain themselves. I found the book to be full of information that I had never been explained in other books. I would recommend this book too moderate/Advanced users looking to speed up there development time with Visual Studio.
