Visual C++ for Visual Basic Programmers

The C family of languages is the consummate choice of programmers who want to program without restrictions. Think of anything you want to do in programming, and there is a way to get it done in C, C++, or C#. There are very few language families that can make that claim. This book was written for intermediate to advanced Visual Basic programmers who want these languages on their tool belt. This book will concentrate on components of and the differences in Visual Basic and C. You will be shown how to write routines and objects that you can use to augment your Visual Basic skills. If you decide to shift to the C family altogether, this is a good way to begin your transition. At the same time, there is enough information in this book to shift to C# completely.
