Free Ebooks in Express Editions - How to get them?

Free Ebooks in Express Editions - How to get them?

• Gonzalo1977Uy

  Hi everyone!
  
  Can anyone help me I can log in to the Microsoft Connect just fine and I have already download the Corbis Images. But the problem now is that I couldn't find the E-books anywhere in the download page. There's only one record found in the dowload section which is the Corbis Images. I'm so confused about that..
  
  Thanks.

  How do I do this   I saw how to download the Netscape / Mozilla EXE file, but not for Explorer.  Thanks in advanced.
  
  UPDATE: I did try the File Transfer Manager download web site, and I still get the VBScript error I describe before.  Is there any other way to get the eBooks, Icons, Images, etc   No matter what I tried, it refuses to launch.  Firefox still downloads and opens the ASPX file in Visual Web Developer (even with the File Transfer Manager installed) and Explorer still has a VBScript error.  I even tried using MS Document Explorer (VB Express-->Community-->Check Question Status; then I used that URL bar to visit the Connect and File Transfer Manager sites).

  scott's post below should work.
  
  after registering, you'll get an email that gives you the download link for all the freebies. you may have to wait for a few minutes though since msdn connect has some sort of delay before it shows you the "downloads" menu on the left of the page.

  Solution to download e-book (or free tool from Microsoft Connect) by Microsoft File Transfer Manager.

  1. Close all internet connection.
  2. Open Microsoft File Transfer Manager.
  3. Connect your internet connection.
  4. At Popup Confirm application validation, click 'Yes'
  5. Select your download job (ex. Microsoft Visual C# 2005 Express Edition - Build a Program now!) and click Resume

  Note: This solution avoid error such as Visual C++ Runtime error.

  Good morning...
  
  Any idea if they're going to offer a free book download for Visual C++

  Sorry if this is the wrong post, but how do I get the freebies (I think there's a bug)   I *did* register.  Here's what happens:
  
  * Internet Explorer 6.0 SP2: VBScript Error: error launching File Transfer Manager
  * Mozilla Firefox 1.0.7 AND Mozilla Firefox 1.5 RC2: it opens the ASPX page in Visual Web Developer (yes, I did download and install the File Transfer Manager)
  
  This happens when I click the download Download button.
  
  
  My os is Win XP Pro SP2.  Browsers producing errors:
  
  * Internet Explorer 6.0 w/ SP2: VBScript Error
  * Mozilla Forefox 1.0.7: downloads and opens ASPX page in Visual Web Developer
  * Mozilla Firefox 1.5 RC2: downloads and opens ASPX page in Visual Web Developer
  
  Visual Studio components I have installed:
  
  * All Express products

  Try to install the activex of the File Transfer Manager in your IE 6.0.
  I encountered that problem also when I try to download the eBook but then I figured it out.
