I am fresh in the process of moving from C++ (VS6) to C# (2003).
I am aware that many C# books exist, but can anyone reccomend a serious book
wich is suitable for developers with quite some C++ (non-mfc) experiance?

Thank you for taking your time,
Val

"Inside C#" seems OK. It's hardly worth getting a book though if you're
already an experienced OO programmer - the documents available in the C#
product documentation are more than sufficient, IMO.

Might be yes. I was too busy. But I'm sure you are definatly right.
Thank you sir.

I actually like the step by step books. I know they get slated a lot, they're not in depth OO principles, but if you want to see what's available in C#, well I found them ok. A little bit of asp, xml, ado, components, forms… Nice simple examples to get your feet wet, like a brochure, a couple of weeks work at most. Works very well with the VS documentation.
 
i used MCAD/MCSD Self-Paced Training Kit: Developing Windows-Based
Applications with Microsoft Visual Basic .NET and Microsoft Visual C# .NET

to prepare for my MCP exam, and i found it a very good book that shows you
the different things that you can do with C#.
it does not teach about OO or good programming practices, but if you are
already a software developer, it is not a problem.

kind regards,
Bruno.
