 Very good book May 16, 2002
It's a shame that every time someone makes a name for themselves, others come out of the woodwork to tear that person down. I started with this book over a year ago and am now developing Web sites for a living making quite a nice living. I won't say I learned everything from this book. However, I can state unequivocably that this is the book I started with and the one that got me going with Visual InterDev. With apologies to Sprite ignore the people that have personal vendettas against Mr Archer and obey your thurst for knowledge. This book has always been and still is the BEST BEGINNER-LEVEL book on the market.
 Little to offer for beginners or pros November 27, 2001
As an experienced developer looking to get a quick jump on a new ASP editor, I thought this book was the ticket. Unfortunately, the author couldn't decide to whom he was writing. One minute I'm bored with a "hello world" snippet, and the next I'm frustrated with a (too complex for a beginner) non-functioning scriplet. Visual Interdev has a lot of slick features, but this book did very little to emphasize them--too much time was spent introducing new concepts and technologies, and not enough time was spent on the guts of a great application. That being said, I would have rated this higher had the book at least done a good job introducing the aforementioned technologies--but it fell short in that, too. Spend a little more time, and read Visual Interdev Unleashed--great chapters on the data environment and the scripting object model, as well as some good reference material.
Great book! August 7, 2001

I have to admit that I'm way late getting into the Web development thing, but this was the perfect book to get me started. It really showed me the tremendous advantages that VID provides for a professional developer above that of an HTML page markup toy like Front Page. I would like to have seen much on ASP. However, I understand that the focus was VID and the book did a great job of showing off all that it can do! I would also recommend as a follow-on to this book, the Teach Yourself ASP in 24 Hours by Christoph Wille. These two books together will get you going in on time.
The very best - book & author August 5, 2001

This book is *easily* the best VID book on the market! I hate it when a high-profile author like Tom Archer gets slammed by "reviewers" that obviously have a personal bone to pick with the often-outspoken Archer. However, I digress. This book really is the very best in terms of content covered, demos and explanation of code. I was also quite impressed with the author's willingness to help me work through any problems I had in getting started - something I wish more authors would do!
Easily the best - both the book and author August 5, 2001
