Product Description
Beginning Object-Oriented ASP.NET 2.0 with VB .NET covers all of the basics, from definition to inheritance. This book even includes a chapter on Visual Studio 2005 and Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0, enabling you to create ASP.NET 2.0 applications. Also included are chapters on creating web forms, web controls, and web services. Code samples illustrate the usage of each concept. If you have a background in procedural programming, this book will teach you what a class is, how it relates to an object, and how to model real-world data into a class. You will be able to create a class in VB .NET, add properties and methods, and use that class in a simple ASP.NET web application created with VB .NET.

 OOP concepts are clearly explained April 17, 2006

I've just purchased a copy of this book and am enjoying reading it. It's written in a very clear and concise manner and a breeze to read. The OOP concepts are clearly explained with accompanying diagrams. Does exactly what it says on the tin.
 Good introduction to object oriented programming! April 3, 2006

This is a good book for programmers wanting to learn about the basics of object oriented programming and its implementation in VB.Net.
Unlike other books that dive into so much technical detail that you end up glossing over the information and not actually learning all that much, this book clearly and simply walks you through the basics of OOPs.
After each section, you are given examples of code to see how the concepts are used. The chapters are short enough to be easily digestable.
I learned more about OOPs from this book than other larger and more expensive titles.
 not bad December 20, 2005

When this book says it's from Novice to Pro, I expected some advanced notions. It covers many topics, but very briefly. It is not a bad book, and is a very good read for someone who needs to get basic introduction and coverage on .Net topics. It covers basic Objects and Classes designs, encapsulation, inheritance, namespaces, webforms and web services. I reckon the price I paid (CAN $37 ) is way too high for this book, but I gave it to some people who needed an introduction for ASP w/.Net and they found it useful. Basically, if you need to do some advanced projects forget this, on the other hand if you need to learn some simple concepts go for it, but wait for the price to drop.
 Emphasis on the 'Beginning' January 11, 2006

If you are not an introductory user then this book is a quick read and overpriced. The subject matter was well selected but the depth of content, writing style, and cookbook mentality was disappointing.
 if by "novice" you mean "the lobotomized" and by "professional" you mean "won't have to ride the short bus next year" May 19, 2006

Don't get this book if you have _any_ experience in programming or have little patience for repetition or word count padding. I suffered through the whole thing just so I could feel justified in writing this review.
"HTML elements are not available to the server, because they are text that is passed through to the browser." O.M.G. How did I go all this time without realizing that HTML is text that is "passed through" to the browser?! Sentences like this one are commonplace: "The HTML section of the Toolbox will have a title of HTML." Ya think? Or this jem: "The last category of properties is Misc. This category will list any properties that did not fit into the other categories." The whole book is like this. It's incredible. I didn't pad my jr. high english papers like this.
Finally, there are some mistakes in the references to the samples -- having you name a class something, then referring to that class with a different name later. This type of errata is common in tech books, but with something this short and brutally simple-minded, you would have thought the tech editor would have caught these mistakes. Maybe he fell asleep reading it as many times as I did.
