Hai Craig and David,

Thanks for your response. I too have had good experience with Wrox.

What I am in interested in is creating internet/intranet database applications against SQL Server, which I think probably means ASP.NET, Net Forms, and VB.NET. I am not particularly interested in C#, but rather in RAD.

As you know my background is Fox, and I already have a fairly good grasp of inheritance,etc. With this clarification, do you have any suggestions?

TIA,

Alex
