Overview

For a web site to offer its users an experience that improves on that of newspapers or textbooks, it needs a way to change the information it contains dynamically - and that means it needs access to a data source. Through the combination of ASP.NET and ADO.NET, Microsoft provides everything necessary to access, read from, and write to a database, and then allow web users to view and manipulate that data from a web browser. In this book, we'll show you how it's done.

Overview

For a web site to offer its users an experience that improves on that of newspapers or textbooks, it needs a way to change the information it contains dynamically - and that means it needs access to a data source. Through the combination of ASP.NET and ADO.NET, Microsoft provides everything necessary to access, read from, and write to a database, and then allow web users to view and manipulate that data from a web browser. In this book, we'll show you how it's done.

  • Connecting to common data sources, including SQL Server and MS Access
  • Reading data with data reader and dataset objects
  • Creating and deleting records, and editing data
  • Displaying data with ASP.NET's web server controls
  • Writing and using stored procedures from VB.NET code

    QUICK LEARN OF ADO.NET

    I had minor ASP and ADO experience. My goal was to understand ADO.net and I feel this book help me acheive this goal. Overall I had no problems picking up the concepts and running through the sample code. The book is presented in a reasonably concise mannar. I enjoyed the fact that its not 800-900 pages long.

    Excellent "bridge" book

    Are you an experienced ASP programmer trying to take that first step into the .Net world? Have you gone through the .Net "tutorials", "walkthroughs", and "quick starts" and still feel lost?...like there's a missing "piece" to the puzzle that the Microsoft authors left out? Then buy this book. True, it's titled "Beginning...". And it does include a chapter titled "Relational Databases" and section here or there that any knowledgeable SQL-exposed person should know. Plus it goes through some of the simpler tasks a little more slowly that I'd like. But...heck...that why God gave you common sense and fingers to skip all that stuff! I've finished the first 7 chapters and felt strongly enough to post a positive review...something I've never done for any book. It's short (448 pages), it's cheap ($40 US), and a quick read. It'll get you over that ADO.NET hump and ready to tackle the rest of the framework!
