    I bought the book about two months ago.  It wasn't what I was look for
    but it has helped some.  I wanted to know how to structure the
    programs, where do I put my own code sort of thing, how do all the
    'sections' work together.  The book has tons of examples and sections
    of code for doing various things.  Eventually it may just be what I
    need, I just need to get further into my development.
