The Lazarus 9.28 Primer is an excellent starter if you are tempted to learn more about applications. Some of the subjects discussed are:

• Installation
• Command-structure
• Program-layout
• Programming technique
• Use of the standard component set
• Building a component
• Creating and using a DataBase.

Clearly explained examples lead you through the "secret" ways of programming and you will learn how to build your own stable applications.

Have a look at Chapter 10 about "Dialogs". (You need an Acrobat Reader for this).

The Primer discusses only examples written for Windows Operating systems like XP, Vista, W200 or W7. The Primer has 16 chapters over 350 pages and comes with a cd with all examples and Lazarus 9.28.

Installation is easy, well documented and can be done by anybody that can put a cd in the computer and click a couple of times on "Next", "Ok", etc. The uninstall removes all software.
