Review:

Microsoft Certified Solution Developer (MCSD) candidates interested in passing the Designing and Implementing Distributed Applications with Microsoft Visual Basic 6 exam (70-175) will benefit from studying Exam Cram: Visual Basic 6 Distributed. With its reasoned explanations of central concepts and its excellent review questions, this book will help you solidify your knowledge of Visual Basic 6 for the test.

Exam Cram: Visual Basic 6 Distributed systematically works through the details commonly encountered on the exam and organizes itself around the Microsoft Solutions Framework Application Model. While the review offers some information on configuring the Visual Basic 6 development environment, it goes into much more detail on user interfaces (including user services, client-side Web interfaces, and ActiveX controls). The book also explores the Component Object Model (COM) objects used to define business logic and then details the implementation of data structures on the back end of a distributed Visual Basic application.

Since it is an exam preparation manual, Exam Cram: Visual Basic 6 Distributed includes some practice questions similar to those appearing on the exam. Each chapter wraps up with sample questions, and the book concludes with a 57-question sample test.

Like all books in the Exam Cram series, this one features helpful explanations with the answers to its sample questions. These explanations help you correct the thinking that leads to errors, rather than merely recognizing errors when you make them. --David Wall
