Object-Oriented Programming with Visual Basic.NET
"...it is written clearly, and any student who has successfully completed a programming course in any language should be able to use it as a stepping-stone into the world of applications programming in Microsoft's dot-NET framework.  Recommended."   S.L. Tanimoto, University of Washington, Choice"Beginning with an overview of the syntax and primary constructs of the VB.NET language, the book elaborates standard object-oriented programming topics including class, inheritance, access modifiers and scoping issues, abstract classes, design and implementation of interfaces and design patterns, and refactoring in VB.NET...All in all, the book will help VB users to develop a firm understanding of object-oriented programming in VB.NET."
