I use C# for programmers' second edition by Harvey Deitel and Paul
Deitel. I am doing a lot of heavy C# and have almost everything I need.
It is a good learn and reference guide. I generally by the dictionary
type books.
Before you buy the book...
http://www.csharp-station.com/Tutorials/Lesson02.aspx is a good
reference for basic stuff.
I am now using a lot of Microsoft and other on line books for BizTalk,
SQL, SharePoint and C#. They told me not to buy the books, try to get
the information on-line.
I work with some MS consultants and they want as much as you can get in
a stored procedure or stored function. Sometimes I look at my stored
procedures and they remind me of a COBOL program.
Good Luck

Subject: [HP3000-L] OT: Any suggestions on a learning C# book?
Hi all,
I bought the Microsoft "Visual C# 2005: The Language", and I
think it's a POS as far as a tool for learning C#...it's really more of
a reference, or a book for folks who already know JAVA (or C++) to learn
C#.
I also have "Visual C# 2005 Demystified", but it's a tad too
rudimentary (it delves into what a loop is and/or what an IF is).
Before I spend anymore of my hard earned pay, I like to get
something that some other old COBOL hack has used to learn C#?
TIA, and have a great week!

well preserved body, but rather to skid in
broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out,
and loudly proclaiming:
-- WOW!!! What a Ride!!!
