Features: This book provides a detailed introduction to the knowledge of developing database applications with ASP.NET (using VB.NET language). It first introduces the environment for running and developing ASP.NET, as well as the basics of VB.NET. Then, it covers the knowledge of SQL Server, helping readers who lack database knowledge to get started. Next, it provides an in-depth explanation of ADO.NET and how ASP.NET applications use ADO.NET to access databases. The book presents two practical development examples: a small-scale web application for a personal address book, and a medium-sized application that follows the popular three-tier architecture—an online bookstore. Through these examples, readers will gain the ability to develop medium-sized enterprise information systems. At the end, the book explains .NET Web services for readers interested in further exploration.
This book does not aim to be all-encompassing or, but rather to enable readers with little or no development experience, or only basic programming knowledge, to quickly achieve the ability to use ASP.NET to develop multi-tiered information systems for small and medium-sized enterprises. The examples in the book are carefully selected, and all the code can be obtained from the accompanying CD-ROM. These codes are presented in an intuitive way to guide you into the realm of ASP.NET development.
