looking for Book or online documentation on DotNet Framework Class Library

[mttc]

I am looking for Book or online documentation for
DotNet (.NET) Framework Class Library.
Include:

->> System.Windows.Forms.Control
->>and System.Data.

The MSDN is very short and not have enough examples.
For example see MSDN on this:

“Control.RecreateHandle Method”
Forces the re-creation of the handle for the control.

Who know what is mean?
Like this have many members with no enough explanations.

A handle is a pointer to an object. In practical terms, a handle is used to
reference an object.

In this case, the Control.RecreateHandle method recreates the handle for the
control.

A handle is a pointer to the location in memory where an object is stored. In
practical terms, a handle is used to reference a particular object.

In this case, the Control.RecreateHandle method recreates the handle of a
particular control.

Given that you want more information, you're probably better off
looking for more detailed documentation about Windows Forms and
ADO.NET in particular rather than a Framework reference. All of the
Framework reference books I've read are little more than hard copies
of what Microsoft has on its MSDN site.

I agree that many method and property descriptions on the MSDN site
are uninformative, although I can appreciate the difficulties in
writing technical documentation, as I did it once. Once you know
something inside out it's hard to remember what it's like not to know
it, so you forget that what seems "obvious" isn't at all obvious.

Anyway, like I said, look for advanced "How To" books on Windows Forms
and ADO.NET.

Or, you can do what I do and use these Google groups as a giant
reference book. Whenever I have a specific problem I search these
groups looking for other people who have had the same problem and look
at the answers they received. Usually I can figure out how to do a
thing by looking here.
