Acknowledgments

Writing a book always requires a substantial commitment of time and effort, and for that we are grateful to our spouses and families for their support in helping to bring this project through to completion. Steve would like to thank Donna; Ron would like to thank Vanessa and Sean; and Paul would like to thank Deb, Russel, and Victoria.

In commemorating the tenth anniversary of Visual Basic, we would also like to acknowledge the contributions of the designers and developers who transformed Visual Basic from an idea into a reality. Truly, it has been a monumental accomplishment that has transformed the way in which applications are created.

We’d also like to thank the book’s technical reviewers, Daniel Creeron, Budi Kurniawan, and Matt Childs, for their thoughtful, careful reviews of our work. We’d also like to thank Alan Carter and Chris Dias at Microsoft for their help in answering our annoying questions and for reviewing the manuscript.
