| A comprehensive ADO.NET reference, tutorial, and best practices all in one book Seasoned trainers Richard Hundhausen and Steven Borg provide a thorough and detailed reference to everything thats ADO.NET. This is no small undertaking! The ADO.NET section of the .NET Framework, which you will come to know as System.Data and its related namespaces, delivers more than 200 classes, structures, and enumerations, each containing between five to fifty members. The authors have documented each namespace, including System.Data, System.Data.Common, System.Data.OleDb, System.Data.SqlClient, and System.Data.SqlTypes. In addition, numerous notes about what doesnt work in ADO.NET as advertised, workarounds, and shortcuts are provided.
