Crafting Delphi Database Applications

the industry today, and Borland's new visual environment, Delphi, has more
powerful database capabilities than any other programming tool available.
Crafting Delphi Database Applications, written by Borlander Richard C.
Haven, is a book and CD-ROM set that gives database programmers the
in-depth knowledge and software tools they need to master Delphi database
application development, including creating and using components,
client/server development, multiuser database applications, and SQL.
You'll also learn how to migrate your Delphi applications to other
database products like Paradox, FoxPro, or Power Builder.

Writing Java Applets

The future of the Web lies in HotJava, a technology that allows programs to
be run from any computer that can connect to the Web. This technology is
cross-platform and lets you run executables, called applets, from within
an HTML document instead of having to download the program and run it
later using a special viewer or other program. Writing Java Applets will
teach you to master the creation of Java applets that will take advantage
of the power of the Web and the end user's computer. 

Writing Java Applets provides a step-by-step introduction to writing
applets in Java, explains the difference between Java and HotJava, tackles
the issues of distributed programs and network security, presents a
working implementation of a HotJava application that you can build a sales
business around, and more. This book and software set teaches you the easy
way to write interactive, executable Web content quickly and effectively.
