About the Book

Praise Page for Windows Forms Programming in Visual Basic .NET "This is the .NET WinForms book to have. If you have been looking for a good Windows Forms book for your bookshelf, here it is. Windows Forms Programming in Visual Basic .NET covers everything from 'Hello World' to multithreading the user interface. Sells and Gehtland definitely understand Windows Forms and VB and are able to bring many new .NET techniques and concepts to the VB masses." - Darrin Bishop, Senior Technical Specialist "Not only does Sells do a great job of breaking down all the quintessential components that anyone developing a Windows Forms application should know, but he also covers the critical pieces of functionality, like multi-threaded programming and resource management, which every Windows Forms developer should incorporate into his or her applications." - Colin Bowern, Senior Consultant, Microsoft Corporation "With its excellent content, this book is easily an important component for any Visual Basic .NET developer's toolbox." - Amit Kalani, coauthor of MCAD/MCSD Developing and Implementing Windows -based Applications with Microsoft Visual C# .N ET and Microsoft Visual Studio .N ET Exam Cram 2 (Exam Cram 70-316) "If you are a VB.NET developer - or one coming from a 'classic' VB background - and you want a no-nonsense guide to the key elements of WinForms development, this book is for you. In-depth practical experience shines through each chapter." - Martin Naughton, Independent Freelance Software Consultant "If you're planning on using the .NET Framework, this book is an invaluable resource. Chris dives straight into the heart of what makes the Windows Forms Framework tick. He has a real talent for striking the proper balance between showing you the theory behind the software and demonstrating coding techniques that will make you instantly productive." - From the Foreword by Ted Pattison, VB .NET Guru and author of Building Applications and Components with Visual Basic .NET "This book contains consistent and detailed hands-on examples about Windows Forms. Whether you are new to programming in .N ET or already experienced, Chris Sells gives you the thorough grounding you need to write Windows Forms applications." - Erick Sgarbi, Software Engineer "This is a great book for programmers who need to get work done with WinForms, and don't have time to read a 1, 200-page tome. Unlike many of the other WinForms books out there, it goes beyond the available Microsoft documentation and gives you critical tips and tricks you won't find in the manuals. Chris really knows his stuff when it comes to WinForms programming and lays out in-depth information clearly and logically. His actual working experience with WinForms is obvious throughout the book, which has the information you need to know if you want to get beyond simple demos and write serious WinForms applications. The chapter on Web deployment is worth the price of admission just by itself. I'd definitely recommend this title to anyone who is serious about WinForms development." - Henry Stapp, Software Development Lead, Youbet.com, Inc." If you are just beginning to use WinForms, or even if you are already an experienced hand, you will find this book an antidote for confusion and a friendly companion on the road to writing modern applications." - Alan Cooper, Father of Visual BasicWindows Forms Programming in Visual Basic .N ET is the ultimate guide to using the Microsoft .NET forms package. Readers will learn how to build applications that take full advantage of both the rich user interface features of the Microsoft Windows operating system and the deployment features traditionally associated with HTML-based applications. Authors Chris Sells and Justin Gehtland draw upon their WinForms research and programming experience to go beyond the Windows Forms documentation to give you a clear picture of exactly how Visual Basic .NET programmers can use WinForms. Readers will gain an understanding of the rationale behind aspects of WinForms design and learn how to avoid or solve common problems. Throughout the book, detailed illustrations of WinForms user interface features and working code samples demonstrate best practices. All code has been tested with Visual Studio .NET 1.1 and is available at www sellsbrothers.com, where readers will also find updates to the book. This book focuses on the topics developers need to know in order to build real-world applications, including:Form layoutMultiple top-level and non-rectangular windowsClasses outside the System.Windows.Forms namespace, including System.Drawing and System.
