This long-awaited complement to Appleman's previous bestseller shows programmers how to turbocharge VB by describing how to control the entire Windows API. Divided into three parts, the book begins with a series of programming puzzles of increasing complexity. Each puzzle describes a typical API function, followed by a small VB program applying the function. These programs almost work but are all missing something. Readers are challenged to solve the puzzle and fix the program -- thus learning in the process. The second part contains solutions to the puzzles, along with in-depth technical explanations, while the final part concludes with general tutorials that you can refer to for help in solving the problems.The book is primarily for VB6 programmers, but includes a VB5 source code tree as well.About the author:Dan Appleman has been developing applications for Microsoft Windows since its release in 1985. He founded Desaware Inc. in 1991, which focuses on the development of component software and tools for Visual Basic, including the best-selling SpyWorks, VersionStamper, and StorageTools products.
