2 CBT Integration Guide A Winning Combination Prentice Hall is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with CBT Systems, a leading developer of interactive computer-based tutorials. CBT has developed a complete set of CD-based tutorials for Visual Basic5. These tutorials are available to colleges and universities exclusively through Prentice Hall in conjunction with Gary Cornell and Dave Jezak s Core Visual Basic 5. The CD-based tutorials were originally created for industry training and are organized around skill levels; Core Visual Basic 5 on the other hand, was written using conventional chapters. Because the tutorials and the text cover essentially the same topics, individuals using the two in tandem are provided with a superbly well rounded, truly multimedia introduction to Visual Basic. Core Visual Basic 5 offers a consistent presentation and real-world examples in every chapter. You will want to review the table that summarizes the chapter-by-chapter organization. The table will help you ascertain precisely which CBT tutorial and corresponding Cornell and Jezak chapter cover the topic you are looking for. Once you are finished perusing the list of topics, it s time to get to work with the book and the CD. And, of course, we welcome you to visit our web sites at or
