Visual Studio 2010 is the name of 2008 version of Microsoft's multi-language programming IDE. At first glance you might think this book covers all the languages but primarily C++. Unfortunately, this book has a misleading title and mostly targets Visual Basic programming language. That being said, if you are a C++ programmer such as myself, do not waste your money on this book; you will not find anything useful in it. Total waste of money. If you're really looking for Visual Studio 2008 C++ book, try Ivor Horton's Beginning Visual C++ 2008 which is what I'm reading now.
