Customer Reviews

A very easy introduction to COM.

Not as good as "Inside COM" which I also rate as a 5 star book but is simpler to understand and can be used very effectively in conjunction with the above named book. Very reasuring to the reader.

Good for fast learning

Good book since the concepts are covered with real programs. One can get fundamental of COM/DCOM in record time. I did not know what COM/DCOM before reading it but just in 15 days I mastered the concepts. However, the writers could have avoided unnecessary detailed programming which does not incorporate materials of COM/DCOM. It took me some time to figure out what part of the codes are relevant and what not. It wasted my time and energy in locating relevant portions in the code

UNDERSTAND COM

this book is probably the most understandable that i've read about COM. Chris Corry writes about this subject so well that anybody could understand and comprehend COM.

A Great Book

The Waite Group's COM/DCOM Primer Plus is a great book. Very witty, creative and above all very informative. The authors are outstanding and have a keen grasp of COM. Reading this book is a definite do!

Great Book

I finally know what COM is
