Designed to get programmers up to professional level as fast as possible, ADO.NET: From Novice to Pro is aimed toward both developers who have little or no experience with ADO.NET (or with .NET in general) and programmers who are not comfortable with database programming. Best-selling author Peter Wright painlessly moves readers from simple database access to the sophisticated manipulation of XML documents.
