Query: I returned this one on the first day :(

In my quest to learn Visual Basic, I figured I'd send my brother out to pick me up a good book for absolute beginners. He returned with John Smiley's <u> Learn to Program with Visual Basic 6</u>. I took a brief look through the book... and just didn't see enough charts and tables to keep me interested. The book looked as if it had been written by a 13-year-old for his "teacher for a day" class. I'm sure the content provided was ample, but I didn't feel like wading through the fluff and commentary to find the actual lessons embedded deep within. That's the last time I send my brother out book-hunting. :) I admit that I didn't give this one much of a chance, but for those casually browsing in a bookstore, an initial hint of "first impression charm" was extremely lacking in this publication. If you're patient, be sure to check this one out... but it was absolutely not right for me.
