About this title

From the Back Cover

ASP.NET 2.0 Upgrader s Guide Contents

Section 1: Get going fast
In the first two chapters, you ll be introduced to the new ASP.NET 2.0 features and learn how to develop applications using Visual Studio 2005, the new code-behind model, and the new Access data source control. Then, in chapter 3, you ll learn how to use the new master pages feature, which you ll probably want to use for every ASP.NET application you develop.

Section 2: The new data access features
Learn how to use the powerful new SQL and XML data sources and the new GridView, DetailsView, and FormView controls to develop professional applications with little or no C# code. Then, learn how to use object data sources to create 3-layer applications that let you separate the presentation code from the data access code. This section alone pays for this book!

Section 3: Other great work-saving features
Master the use of the new site navigation features, the Login controls, profiles, the MultiView and Wizard controls, themes, web parts, and more. All of these features help you develop applications faster and better than ever before with far less coding!

Section 4: Conversion and deployment
Chapter 15 shows you when and how to convert your old applications from 1.x to 2.0, but it also shows you how your old applications can co-exist with your new applications. Then, chapter 16 shows you how to configure and deploy your new 2.0 applications.

What programmers said about our ASP.NET 1.x book

"This book enabled me to write custom websites for two customers, which is exactly what I wanted it to help me with. No previous book did such an excellent job of demonstrating how to handle web application security and database classes."
Charles Profitt; posted at Developerland.com

"The section on creating web controls is invaluable everything explained and clearly demonstrated."
Robert Gelb, vbrad.com

"I especially appreciated the workaround insights for common hang-ups, like dealing with back-button refreshes problems that often plague inexperienced ASP.NET developers. These gems alone will be worth the price of the book for many first-time .NET web authors."
5-star review by Mike Riley at asp.netPRO

"Your VB.NET and ASP.NET books are quite simply the best I ve found. I like them (the style, the examples, everything) so well that I ve required both of them for the Fall semester."
Chris Albright, Instructor, Kelley School of Business, Indiana Univ.

"For a beginner, Murach s book is simply a dream, and although I have written a couple of web applications now, I still use it as a quick reference. WORTH EVERY PENNY IN GOLD."
