Although "Database Programming with Visual Basic.NET" can be used as a reference book - thanks to its many listings and tables - it's really intended to be a book that any serious VB programmer who needs to do database programming should read cover to cover. Microsoft MVP author Carsten Thomsen takes developers through all the data access aspects of Visual Studio.NET with sample code in VB.NET. This includes how to create the various database items, such as databases, tables, constraints, database projects, and so on, both from Visual Basic.NET IDE, but also programatically. Readers progressively build a complete user management system that includes SQL Server (or MS Access), Active Directory, and MessageQueue.
