142 Error in Text
The gray box for the code, on page 142, 2/3 down the page, is broken and the word "Country" looks out of place, even though it is part of the comment just above it. This initially is confusing.

144 Error in Text
On page 144 in the code for "Using the NewPassword Method section, before actually changing the password, shouldn't you check to see that the "strNewPassword" variable is the correct length. This would be consistent with other coding shown for setting/changing the password shown in the sections "Compacting a Database" and "Creating a New Database", on pages 144 and 145.

823 Error in Text
The 3rd paragraph implies that the Interface for a class is NOT required to interop with COM, only if you want to have IntelliSense. However, this is not the case. The Interface is required, as shown in this MSDN article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms973802.aspx.

Step 2 in the text:

name the Resource file as Ribbon.XML

The file should be named as “wrkgadm.resx”, which is how it is named in the project and text examples.

381 Error in Text
The 2 VB and C# examples near the bottom of the page have a code error in them. For the VB code, on the 3rd line:

Return My.Resources.Resource1.rbnWrkGadm

Should be:

Return My.Resources.wrkgadm.rbnWrkGadm

because that is how you named the resource in the project.

Similarly, for the C# code, the return statement should be “return wrkgadm.rbnWrkGadm;”.

833 Error in Text
The code to call SN.exe is slightly misleading because it needs to be run from the Visual Studio command prompt, not just any prompt. It requires that the VS tools in the path to work correctly. But the text just says command prompt, suggesting that any old windows command prompt would work, which is not the case.

833 Error in Text
The regasm code needs to be called from the VS command prompt, which should probably be called out in step 2, where it only says “Launch a command window.”

833 Error in Text
“The Registering managed code” section outlines four steps to registering the dll on the machine, however, when I do that it doesn’t necessarily always work for any old class. The class MUST have 2 things (see MSDN article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms973802.aspx).

a. Be COM Visible (which is eluded to several paragraphs earlier, but not directly called out that the Class is required to have the COM Visible attribute).
b. That the Class implements an Interface that must also be COM Visible. This is really the most important part, because the appendix implies that that interface is NOT required when it really is required.
