From: Brian on 23 Sep 2009 10:03 Willie, Ivo Wessel did a really nice VO book a couple of years ago. I think that it is still available. For a jumpstart into VO/Vulcan, I think that VODC would be the fastest way to come up to speed. Everyone there is always very friendly and willing to help. VODC is a "must go" event for those serious about Vulcan.NET Here is the English link. http://www.vodc.visualobjects.de/en/ And the German Link. http://www.vodc.visualobjects.de/ And it it's in Stuttgart ! What more could a car guy/gal want ! Brian http://www.GoVulcan.NET

From: Sherlock on 24 Sep 2009 01:07 Brian Not trying to be controverial or difficult.. but a new person would get the wrong idea about VO / Vulcan if this was their example code set. That UK/Irish book .. cannot think of that guys name and Ivo's books were very good. That whole subdatawindow, Databrowser, Caret and ODBC era just do not cut it.. and dont bother learning them at all. I am sure VO devoteers of the time voted with their feet, just using this stuff alone. If I had the time [ sigh !] or maybe a group of use do the South Seas correctly, with other techniques, bBrowser, ReportPro... just to help begineers.

Doug ... That UK/Irish book .. cannot think of that guys name ... That was Sandy Hood, but his firm [Summer Triangle] went bust and the liquidator seized the stock, which they couldn't sell so destroyed the remainder. i had TWO copies, lent one which I never saw again... The other author was Alwyn Bramley Jennings ... email me privately for his email address and phone no. I have the CD ... which has the dbf's and the aef's mentioned in the book ... I have asked Alwyn for his permission to place the stuff up on the web ... so his phone no still works but he is away at the moment. Richard |
