Hi guys

I'm a java programmer making my first steps in the .net world

I'm looking for a book that will include "advanced topics" in .NET and that
will demonstrate using C#

The syntax of C# (loops ,conditions,declarations etc...) is not an issue and
OOP either (inheritance , encapsulation ...),

What I'm looking for is grain of everything:

Pipes, ado.net, windows service, windows forms, web services, networking,...



Will glad to have your recommendations for a professional book that will
cover as much aspects as possible.

Thank you very much

Sharon

I think that Professional C# 2nd edition (Wrox) would be one of your best
bet. It's doesn't try to learn you OOP (although there is a very short
introduction to OOP in the appendix) but rather than that covers pretty
much all that you can do with C# and the .NET Framework: Windows Forms
programming, user controls, GDI+, web services, .NET Remoting, data access,
Windows Service, XML, COM and COM+, Active Directory, Enterprise Services,
ASP .NET... You name it, they have it. Of course, as they are talking about
almost everything in a single book, they don't go in depth in any of those
topics. However, as any of those topic would anyway require a book for
themselves alone, i think that this book will get you started; up to you to
buy more specialized books once you'll know which topic is of interest for
you.

You can also try C# for Java Programmers (wrox)
