PB Cookbook

I saw the recent posting about a PB magazine and thought a much better idea would be a cookbook, which are a popular style of book, of which I have several on VB.NET, ASP.NET and SQL. As mentioned in that thread, there are many things code snippets that fall between the cracks as they get buried in the forums. I remember there was a code archive here somewhere, but would much prefer a PDF formatted book. Any thoughts?

I think the magazine and the cookbook are great ideas. :)

(if you do the cookbook, I have a recipe for #PB_Any cookies that are great! :) )

A PB cookbook is a great idea! I think a CHM format would be better for easier navigation. You could also drop it into the PB help folder and access it from the IDE anytime you needed an idea or example.

CHM would be good, but would also love PDF, as I like to print stuff off, for reading away from the computer, especially this kind of stuff, hence why I buy the printed cook books.
