Pro .NET 2.0 Windows Forms and Custom Controls in C#

[Toby Groves]

Anyone have any opinions on the above book?

I'm in the process of moving from Delphi to VS so I'm familiar with the
general concepts of interface design, I just need something that will
get me up to speed quickly with the intricacies of the Windows Forms way
of doing things. At present I'm spending 80% of my time hunting around
for controls and properties I take for granted in Delphi, it's just a
different world

If the above book will help I'll gladly buy it but I can't find any
reviews nor can I even see what it covers as the TOC PDF preview on the
APress site is broken.

If not this book, then if anyone has any other recommendations I'd be
grateful.

I actually just got that book in today at work. I only had a chance to look
at the DataGridView chapter but it seemed pretty good. It covered all events
and much of the lesser documented items with tons of source code and
examples.

My initial opinion is very favorable.

Ta for that, I might take the plunge.
