RUBBISH. This book is rubbish ! It is probably the worst book I ever spent good money on in my life. There are a lot of words and many pages but nearly ZERO useful information. The authors make a fine art of talking alot about nothing. USELESS RUBBISH !
If you want information about 'Visual Studio 2008' load the package and use the 'Help' button. The information under the 'Help' button is infinitely more useful than this book.
I fear the 'garbage syndrome' that has become so prevalent in all consumer products has worked its way into the technical book field. Save your money and frustration don't waste either on this piece of rubbish.
