Ivor Horton's Beginning Visual C++®2008

Acknowledgments

I'd like to acknowledge the efforts and support of the John Wiley & Sons and Wrox Press editorial and production team in the production of this book, especially my development editor, Ed Connor, who has been there from way back at the beginning and has stayed through to the end. I'd also like to thank my technical editor, John Mueller, once again for doing such an outstanding job of reviewing the text and checking out all the examples in the book; his many constructive comments undoubtedly helped make the book a much better tutorial.

As always, the love and support of my wife, Eve, have been fundamental to making it possible for me to write this book. She has pandered to my every need throughout and has remained patient and cheerful in spite of the hours I spend locked away in my office and my intermittent grumblings about the workload I imposed upon myself.
