A comprehensive, professional CBT product. 4 out of 5 stars.

One of the nicest computer based training products I have seen.
The content was good and the training method well designed.
However, the installation should be improved. Specifically, it relies
on the presence of ODBC. The software fails and gives no
indication of why if this this requirement is not met. Also,
the tutorial will not run under Windows NT since VBX code
is used. Considering the preferred C++ development environment
is NT, this should be fixed. Also, in NT, when workbook
contents are selected the system fails to find winhelp32.exe
and temporarily hangs.
Other than the installation issues, the product is solid. One
further recommendation: It was not immediately clear the
relationship between tutorial, workbook, pre and post test
and labs. For people who don't like to read manuals (most
of us) I would provide a one page diagram of the flow
of the training. Visual feedback is very effective.
Other than that, I look forward to OLE Smartlabs...
