I was really glad to see a book on VB published by O'Reilly. I've always seen them as a symbol of quality, and this one doesn't disappoint.

As a VB developer, I've been looking for a new VB book that includes VB6 and the details I need, but which doesn't talk down to me. I consider myself fairly hot stuff VB-wise, and I don't need chapters explaining how to use FOR..Next loops.

'VB & VBA in a nutshell' gave me that, and at $19.95, saved me half the price of a lesser book. Having picked it up, I learned subtle things I didn't know about the language very quickly. Things that I could use immediately, such as the detail on the Collection and Dictionary objects.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who programs VB6 professionally.
