I've suggested this before, so I found a master programmer who had 20 years of BASIC programmming expericence and has written books on the subject. The below book I read and is top notch (I have read several books on VB and this is a easy one to learn from). Here's a suggestion to contact about getting a professional book made about b4a. Only Erel can do this. I did send him an email about this, but really this has to go through Erel. I cant even figure out how to get a database going to finsih a program i wrote.

The new book will be on Amazon at a lower price than the previous one. We would love to give a special discount for customers of the previous book, but unfortunately Amazon don't allow discount codes. Sorry.

Thanks Philip, it is a shame. Then I'll have to buy it for PennyPress (Amazon has many limitations, DRM and have no possibility of having it in PDF). Thank you anyway.

We've actually finished the text of the book covering version 4.3, but we decided to hang on because Erel is planning to bring out another version fairly soon.
However, not wishing to make you too anxious, we've decided to issue the book now and then update it when the new version is available.

We'll prepare the book for publication this week and it should be available maybe next week.
Hope that is satisfactory...

Just curious...The new version you speak of is version 5 for B4A correct? Just making sure there is not a version 4.4 coming as the B4A 5 Beta is out.
Thanks,

The current edition of the new B4A book covers up to 4.3. We will upgrade this to cover the beta version 5 in the next few days, and it will be finalised when version 5 is finally released and the book updated free to all customers of the new book.

So the paperback version of the book will not be released until all of this is done (version 5 released)? Just curious so when I buy the paperback it will be complete.
Thanks,

Philip, I would like to get the new version of the B4A book. I found the previous one very useful indeed. I have sent a couple of emails to your pennypress email address, as you suggested above, with proof of purchase of the previous book. Unfortunately I have not had a reply. Hope you can do something. Regards
Gerrard
