Great Book

First of all, this is a great book. It has many interesting examples that you can base on. Anyway, if you don't like the sprite control, you can get the newest one on the Author's website. And if you want to, you can pay him 20 pounds (you don't have to) Anyways, the bad thing is that a lot of the secrets are in the dll file, but you can learn most of it from separate chapters in part 3 and 4 if you read it carefully. By the way, you CAN'T always depend on one book and you ARE NOT going to learn everything on one book. Although the book does have screenshorts from vb 4.0 ..., it doesn't really matter as long as you learn the thing.

Why not?

Yes, I agree it's cover is very attractive, but so is the content. The GPF crash with the ActiveX control is already fixed. It's a good buy, trust me, and yourself.
