This book gets down to the nitty gritty detailed bits of Visual Studio, but it doesn't really deal with the 'intermediate simple' things and the section on deployment seems a bit limited as well. The author seems to have changed his mind as to which language he was going to show his examples in as well; in the initial installation section, he suggests using C# Express but the rest of the book actually uses Visual Basic - probably a choice given that most people using this application be relative novices, but it would have been nice not to have had the initial confusion.
