Speaking for myself, I was always put off by the lack of sample exams and a primer. The comment "just read all the manuals and you'll pass" was never motivating. Most programmers exist in a subset of the total functionality, and would be lost when presented with questions outside of their normal subset. I don't know what areas covered in the test are outside of the (large) subset that I routinely use, and hence I'm not clear what areas need to be studied in order to pass the test, if any! In addition, and again speaking for myself, the nastier parts of the API set have been encapsulated in function calls and I haven't had to address some of those issues for a very considerable time. But that again goes back to knowing what aspects to study. Roger Stringer Marietta Systems, Inc.
