Testimonials

"You've done a great job with your ebook, I congratulate you, but you can do even better, go for it!" - Daniel Knight

"Dear Yeoh,
Firstly I would like to congratulate you an such a successful eBook! I am
currently getting into the field of eBook production, and have been stunned
at the number of awful Compilers out there... you eBook has enabled me to
create my own completely from scratch EXACTLY AS I WANT!
Despite having been into eBooks since their inception I have never EVER been
moved to buy one, until I came across yours. Many thanks for all the hard
work, keep it up!
I would like to stick my name (and email!) down for any updates you are
offerring, and would be very interested to hear of any other eBooks you are
producing.
Cheers,
Lee Greenwood"

 

"Anyway I needed to know 2 things how to read htm into my browser without
having a bunch of html files and how to handle the ocx file that is part
of explorer. Your tutorial told me both things I needed to know. I was
real a lifesaver and save be tons of time. so I wanted to say thanks.
-- Miles Welter"

"YEOH,
Your book is very informative.. I constructed my own Ebook using
VC++ about a week ago.. I have been struggling with trying to load
graphics (gif and jpg) into the webpages displayed in the executable..

now my project is up and running and almost ready to publish..
--Bob Campbell"
