Good Program Book For Hardware Test Engineer?
Nov 3, 2009
I am a EE graduate from about a year and a half ago working in the semiconductor industry as a hardware/test engineer. I wan't to learn VB to do lab level data test and acquisition. I am learning this in my free time at work and home, and I would be using VB to talk with different electronic equipment through GBIP to source, measure, and record data. Anyone have any good ideas of a good book for such applications?? I know there are a ton of books and courses out there, but 99.9% of that information is not going to be needed for my industry application. I also took a few C classes in college, and I have some experience with labview so I am not a total noob to programming. So if anyone has a good book, or refferences that would be really appreciated.Also what version of VB would you recomend me learning?

I am starting off in the .NET world and wanted to know what a great beginner book would be that would explain how to use asp.net, vb and SQL.
I hear "Learning Visual Basic" is a good series but wanted to see if there were anymore out there.

Can anyone recommend a good VB book that will teach functions, file IO, arrays, recursion etc. A lot of the ones I have looked at are very basic I started Sam teach yourself VB 2010 in 24hrs but a lot of it didn't relate to what we do in college.

In my applications I use objects and classes, but when reading SO topics, I have the idea I don't use real OOP principles. For example, I never use inheritance or interfaces. Therefore, I am trying to learn proper OOP (in VB.NET), but I find some concepts quite hard to understand (even after reading a lot about the subjects on SO).So I'm trying to find a book or resource with good practical real-world examples. For instance, I kind of understand examples like using an interface for both Dog and Cat classes when using a EatFood method, but I find it hard to relate it to real-world cases.Ideally these books or resources should cover explanations about:
- when and why to use inheritance or interfaces or abstract classes
- when and why to use private, public, protected, virtual etc.
- best practices in dependency injection /inversion of control
- when to use aspect oriented programming
- using of constructors
- solid principles
- singletons
- encapsulation
Perhaps it's a mix of all kinds of concepts, but I think these are all related to OOP, please correct me if I'm wrong.I would prefer a book/resource with VB.NET examples, but this might be difficult?

Can anyone point me in the right direction for a good book or web site for Word and Excel Programming for VB. I'm not talking about VBA, I need to "work" with them from within my program not from within word or excel. I need to upgrade programs that were looking at Office 2000 and we're going to 07 or 10 not sure yet but figured I could at least get a bit of a jump on things.

A co-worker has inherited a Microsoft Access macro that executes a series of SQL operations against a Sybase database by calling OpenQuery on a bunch of action queries, which use linked tables over ODBC. I would like to help him convert it to an SQL script that we can execute directly against the database. And since we have quite a few macros like this, I'd like to come up with a conversion tool.
I expected to be able to access the details of the macro using COM interop. So far I haven't been able to find a way to get to those details. [Code]. I don't think any of the members of AccessObject provide the information I need. But I can't find anything else that even mentions macros. Anybody ever done anything like this? Is there some DoCmd or SysCmd operation that will work here?

I was wondering for good top 5 websites to look for web services that you guys use. Also, anyone know a goood article on creating your own SOAP service and maybe REST service if you provide a good article on it.Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.

I would like to develop a very simple question-answer program whereby there is a user form with a label which contains the question, a text box where the user enters the answer and a button that the user clicks to change to the next question. This should be rather simple but I would like to have about 500 questions in the end (will be slowly adding more questions).
