If anyone hears of accessible books on Visual Basic 2005, whether free
or commercial, please share the info.
I'm already aware of a couple from Microsoft that discuss transition
from Visual Basic 6 and new features in the 2005 version. I'm
specifically interested,however, in books that do not assume prior
knowledge of Visual Basic. In other words, books that teach this .NET
language from scratch, not even assuming one is familiar with Visual
Basic .NET 2003. I don't mind if a general programming background is
assumed, just not familiarity with the VB language, since I would prfer
to learn afresh without having to keep in mind changes in the language
or Visual Studio environment from prior versions..
I did come across a web page that lists a couple more books from
Microsoft that may meet this criteria.
http://www.microsoft.com/MSPress/books/7653.asp
"Microsoft(r) Visual Basic(r) 2005 Express Edition: Build a Program
Now!"
and
"Microsoft(r) Visual Basic(r) 2005 Step by Step"
The books can be ordered not now, but within a couple weeks. They come
with a CD, but it is unclear to me whether the CD includes a complete
electronic version of the book, and if so, what format it is in.
