    This is a great bok

    If you are already familiar with VB.NET or C#.NET then this book will be good for teaching you how to create XML Web Services, Windows Services, and other Server Components. I am currently only proficient with VB.NET, and I love the fact that this book has C#.NET code in it also. It's like two books in one. This book also helped me pass the exam.

    Useful

    This book may help you pass the exam (it worked for me there), but the book has some flaws. In particular, the exam covers quite a bit more than Web Services. Windows Services, COM, and COM+ are all 'Server Components' covered by the exam, but the book fails to explain much about them adequately. On the plus side, it does present Web Services pretty well. The bottom line is this book will help you pass the exam, but leave you with some holes in your knowledge and understanding.
