Not well edited - several of the step-by-steps didn't work 2 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

Mr Cogswell seems to know his topic, but the editors/testers did a terrible job checking out the step-by-step instructions and examples: the diskette install didn't work (I was able to figure out how to install it manually on W95, though). Another example was on page 425: steps 3-5 were a copy of steps 3-5 from page 420 - that was fine on page 420, but made no sense on page 425. There were several other examples of this type of poor proofing throughout the book

Perfect Candidate for the Nazi Book Burning Fires 1 out of 5 stars.
8 of 8 people found this review helpful.

This is BY FAR the worst computer related book I have ever touched. I seriously doubt that the Author even knew what he was doing when he decided to write this book. I purchased this book a while ago, and after trying to create working examples from his bug ridden code I became so distraught that I used this utterly worthless book for firewood. I have never seen anything like this before. Even books written by college professors for use with only thier classes have less errors and those books often have several pages missing and thousands of typos. So, if you are even considering buying this book, then do everyone a favor and DO NOT buy this failer of a book. Hopefully the author will lose money by writting books and as a result be forced to give up writing, which will be beneficial for everyone.

Editorial Review:

Graphics file types and presents ObjectPascal source code to implement read/write modules for each format, as well as sample viewer application to serve as a framework. The accompanying CD contains all source code, sample images in each of the file types, and several shareware/freeware image manipulation applications.

Nathan Wallace's Delphi 3 Example Book 1 out of 5 stars.
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.

A total waste of money. Includes a CD which only has hyperlinks to a non-existent web site, the contents of the CD is contrary to what is described on the back cover. Email's sent to the publishers regarding the CD were ignored.

Do not include this book in your library. The Delphi Online Help is of better value.

Don't Purchase this Book 1 out of 5 stars.

Well...I agree with all the comments submitted by the other customers. The website cannot be found and there's no Source Code in the CD. Those who have purchased this book have been cheated by the publisher and the author. I think all of us deserve our refunds.Don't buy this book or u will regret. I've no choice to put 1 star..in fact no star at all for this book.Tried contacting the e-mail add in the CD but no such mail.Spread this news around to avoid others being cheated.

Editorial Review:

Another addition to the highly successful Programmer's Example series, Wallace's title provides a programming reference to Borland's Delphi development environment, one of the most popular software development tools currently on the market. The title provides comprehensive coverage of the compiler and specific examples of programming code as well as unique abilities and shareware on the CD.

Quick Note on an Old Favorite 3 out of 5 stars.
0 of 1 people found this review helpful.

This book covers introductory Delphi 2 and is therefore dated (hence only 3 stars). Nevertheless, I found it to be an excellent primer on Delphi. The chapters all well written, and the examples are well fleshed out. The source code from the CD runs perfectly. The case study at the end of the book is worth reading for the humor alone.

Editorial Review:

Reveals the secrets of making Windows API calls from Delphi. Gives detailed instructions for using SQL for powerful access to databases, either locally or on a remote server. Covers new information on text and graphics printing. Features two brand new Ace Breakpoint mini-adventures from Don Taylor, presenting Windows messaging and exception handling.

Editorial Review:

Dieses Buch bietet eine systematische Einführung in die Programmierung mit der objektorientierten Programmiersprache Object Pascal sowie eine Darstellung der zugrundeliegenden Entwicklungsumgebung Delphi von Borland. Dabei wird neben Delphi 1.0 auch die neue Version 2.0 berücksichtigt. Alle Sprachkonzepte von der klassischen strukturierten bis zur objektorientierten, visuellen Programmierung einschließlich exception handling werden umfassend und präzise behandelt und an Beispielen illustriert. Object Pascal umfaßt praktisch alle Sprachelemente von C++ und ist einfacher als Visual C++.
