The Reviews were right!
I purchased this book because of all the positive reviews it got.And it seems that everyone that I read was a good review.
So,I started reading it the day I got it.I have only been through the first 3 chapters . I have already learned more about COM and three-tier applications,than any MS Press book I have read.I would have to say the author does and outstanding job at going in depth about topics.Also,he lets you know what is more then likey to show up on the exams.He's not one of those authors who just knows VB,he is actually MCSD certified.I think that has to say a whole lot about him and his experince.
I would say coming from someone who has only read 3 chapters of the book and giving it 5 stars.That should say enough about this book as a study guide or just to sharpen your skills as a VB Developer.I recommend this book for any VB Developer to add to his library.

NOTE:I dont recommend it if you are trying to learn VB ,that's probally not going to happen.

A Tremendous Help
I just passed 70-176 today and I have to give James Foxall's book a lot of credit. It covered all the areas covered on the exam and does an excellent job at it. I do have to say this, however, that his or anybody elses book alone will not guarantee a passing grade. You definitely need to supplement any book with Transcender. Transcender helped me uncover the areas I was weak in and Jim's book helped me brush up on those areas. The two together will go a long way towards success. I also have very little real world experience in VB. Most of it was through what I did on my own and what seems like a mountain of exercises. So any of you that have day to day experience in VB and haven't taken any of the exams, then this book + Transcender + your experience --- hey, you've got it made.
