Cetin,

Thank you. I have also purchased about 9 to 11 books and none of them offer the in depth help and information I need. It is increasingly frustrating.

I'm coming up short on info, or I do not know where to find the info (like you said the online help is poor and cryptic sometimes) -- my style, which is probably like everyone elses, is to know what I can do and then do it as opposed to just learning about the properties and methods on an as needed basis. Sure there is a tremendous set of objects, but as programmers we tend to have up-close and intimate knowledge of every property and method in the most commonly used objects - which is where I'd like to get with .NET.

Perhaps someone else here can offer some source for information that is more than just "this is that."

Kind regards,
Derek
