Hey,

Does anyone know if there are any new DB books coming out? The current one from Premier Press is more of a reference type for the "Classic" Language, rather then a tutorial, or a "How to program in" type book.

Don't think there's anything sides the Beginners Guide.

BTW Are the TGC guys crazy or is my browser screwed up, cause I am going to buy DBPro and CShop when I get enough moolah.

Thought about the Beginners Guide but it says that it costs 75.00$
is that the real price! Cause if it is TGC is crazy. I mean I have C++ books that cost 20.00$ or so, and that seems like the standard price then I find somthin easy and it cost a fortune.

The book is not published by TGC and I expect the price is dictated by the publisher.

Unfortunately it does cost $75 for people not in the UK. Check out different retailers though like Amazon.com, Premier Press's site, and others because it is bound to be cheaper. It definitely is a good book for the beginner.
