This book helps you build bulletproof programs for Windows and the Internet! Visual Basic 6 has a lot to offer, from its new file handling objects and advanced Internet programming capabilities to its new database features. You can learn to build your own commercial-quality application - not just toy apps - using this comprehensive, hands-on tutorial from expert author Gary Cornell, winner of the prestigious Readers' Choice Award from "Visual Basic Programmer's" journal.This best-selling guide for the beginning and intermediate programmer has been thoroughly revised and updated to cover the newest version of the world's number 1 visual programming tool. Using modular, step-by-step instructions, you will: progress from elementary programming skills to marketable expertise; learn object-oriented programming; create VB Forms for use in Internet Explorer; discover Visual Basic's newest database features; create sophisticated event-driven programs; build you own special-purpose Internet Browser; use the Visual Basic environment to develop programs; discover how to distribute your programs; and unleash the power of graphics programming, OLE, and ActiveX.

This volume contains expanded versions of lectures given at an instructional conference on number theory and arithmetic geometry held August 9 through 18, 1995 at Boston University. The purpose of the conference, and of this book, is to introduce and explain the many ideas and techniques used by Wiles in his proof that every (semi- stable) elliptic curve over Q is modular, and to explain how Wiles' result can be combined with Ribet's theorem and ideas of Frey and Serre to show, at long last, that Fermat's Last Theorem is true. Contributors to this volume include: B. Conrad, H. Darmon, E. de Shalit, B. de Smit, F. Diamond, S.J. Edixhoven, G. Frey, S. Gelbart, K. Kramer, H.W. Lenstra, Jr., B. Mazur, K. Ribet, D.E. Rohrlich, M. Rosen, K. Rubin, R. Schoof, A. Silverberg, J.H. Silverman, P. Stevenhagen, G. Stevens, J. Tate, J. Tilouine, and L. Washington. The book begins with an overview of the complete proof, followed by several introductory chapters surveying the basic theory of elliptic curves, modular functions, modular curves, Galois cohomology, and finite group schemes.Representation theory, which lies at the core of Wiles' proof, is dealt with in a chapter on automorphic representations and the Langlands-Tunnell theorem, and this is followed by in-depth discussions of Serre's conjectures, Galois deformations, universal deformation rings, Hecke algebras, complete intersections and more, as the reader is led step-by-step through Wiles' proof. In recognition of the historical significance of Fermat's Last Theorem, the volume concludes by looking both forward and backward in time, reflecting on the history of the problem, while placing Wiles' theorem into a more general Diophantine context suggesting future applications. Students and professional mathematicians alike will find this volume to be an indispensable

In Programming VB .NET: A Guide for Experienced Programmers, authors Gary Cornell and Jonathan Morrison carefully explain the exciting features of Visual Basic .NET. Since VB .NET is, for all practical purposes, a whole new language even for the most experienced Visual Basic programmers, developers need to think differently about many familiar topics. Cornell and Morrison are there to help you with careful discussions of each topic.Cornell and Morrison write from the point of view of the experienced programmer, with constant references to the changes from earlier versions of VB. Developers learn how to use VB .NET for database programming through ADO.NET and web programming through ASP.NET. After reading Programming VB .NET: A Guide for Experienced Programmers, developers will have a firm grasp of the exciting VB .NET language and its uses in creating powerful .NET applications.
