Gosh... You really are doing the rounds. It looks like your going to have a lot of reading to do! 
I've not read the book by Jesse Liberty so I cannot comment to much on it.
The book by Petzold is really a reference book and only really spends the first chapter on C#, the remainder of this very thick (1290 page) book is the .NET Framework in regard to Windows Forms programming. I highly recommend this book for your library if you are going to do Windows Forms applications.
I good introduction to C# is "Microsoft Visual C#.NET Step by Step" as it goes through all aspects of the language and gives a little introduction to many parts of the framework (including ADO.NET, Windows Forms and Web Applications). This book is especially good because there are a lot of keywords that exist in C++ and C# but mean different things. You don't really get that in the other books mentioned.

I've just gotten "Inside C#, second Edition", by Tom Archer, and it's every bit as good as they said it is.

I happen to have all three of these books (What can I say? I'm a bookaholic).
Programming Windows with C# by Petzold is quite good, but most of it is not specific to C# (though all the examples are in C#). He alternates chapters between Windows Forms controls and GDI+. If that's what you're after, you won't be disappointed.
I was given the other two by my dad, who also uses C#.
Programming C# by Liberty (I have the 2nd edition) was very helpful to me. He starts right from the beginning and manages to cover a good number of interesting topics. He assumes the reader has some knowledge of programming and makes direct comparisons between C# and C++.
Windows Forms Programming with C# by Brown was not my cup of tea. (Keep in mind that I don't drink tea, but still...) There seemed to be quite a bit of hand holding, but that's not to say it's a bad book or doesn't contain useful information; It's just not a style of writing I care for.

Is there any particular reason?
I was under the belief that BOOL was cast to bool.
Wouldn't they take up different spaces in memory?
Cheers

BOOL is not a type, its a typedef.
Only any normal person using C would define BOOL as char, not int.
In Windows headers BOOL is defined as an int, blame MS.

I'm guessing but suspect that a Bool is an int because an int is 32 bits and that is the size that a 32 bit machine can handle with the most efficiency.
It would take more instructions to deal with the Bool if it were a byte.
I work on an embedded project using a Motorola 68K (16bit) and a Bool is defined as an int that is also 16 bits. On 8 bit controllers a Bool, if defined at all, is a char or 8 bits. On a few controllers such as the 8051 types where memory is very limited, they have memory locations that only consist of single bits and can be read or written in a single instruction. In that case a Bool is defined as a bit.

I have found the EnumFORMATETC method for IDataObject, and they appear to have nothing in common. How does this:
HRESULT EnumFormatEtc(
DWORD dwDirection, //Specifies a value from the enumeration
// DATADIR
IEnumFORMATETC ** ppenumFormatetc
//Address of output variable that receives the
// IEnumFORMATETC interface pointer
);
Get turned into this:
IEnumFORMATETC OleEnumFormatEtc([in] int dwDirection);
i'm very fuzzy on this.

Trying to find articles on it, but not having any luck.
Looking through MSDN atm, but do you have any other links?

DWORD dwDirection, //Specifies a value from the enumeration
// DATADIR
IEnumFORMATETC ** ppenumFormatetc
//Address of output variable that receives the
// IEnumFORMATETC interface pointer
);
the way I see it, this should tranclate to:
<br />
int EnumFormatEtc(<br />
int dwDirection,<br />
out IEnumFORMATETC[] ppenumFormatetc<br />
)
the method is expected to return an int that deffines the state of the equasion, not a structure. How can it run? Every other method I have looked at translates:
XXX ** type
into an out array.
Could someone explain this to me?

I'm sorry I dont know COM, I suggest you ask this in the COM forum.

I'm not entirely sure on this, while I have encountered it before.
I'm just looking for clarification
in: Just put the variable in
out: public void mymethod(out int X);
in/out: use ref?

I've been looking at the decompiled versions of various structures, and they are for the most part, very helpful.
While not in the order in which they should be, they still show me what I need to cast things as.
The problem is i've found that in Formatetc, they have added a "dummy" object that is a short (int16), and I do not know the reason for this. I'm assuming it's some kind of buffer for the other objects in the structure, but as they are all ordered in alphabetical order, I don't know where to put it, or what it's there to affect.
Any clues?
Cheers

How to use it in a web page?
.net windows com can run in IE directly,
How to open a word or excel document in my C# windows form,
the document maybe on the server,
and edit it,and save the changes to the document on the server?
I find winwordcontrol,but it can't save the changes,
and can't open a office file on the server(http://servername/file.doc),
who can help me?
Thank you!

You can open Word/Excel files that are on the server from the WebBrowser control, but you can't save them again without a workaround, mainly because you would have to use an FTP connection to upload them again.

don't use WebBrowser control,
if there are some other method?
open Word/Excel files that are on the server?
and save to the server?
Thank you again!

Write your own code to download them through HTTP or FTP (or whatever you like), open them using the Process class (using ProcessStartInfo for opening the document-related application without knowing), and when that process exits (or you can use the FileSystemWatcher to watch for file changes) upload the document using HTTP or FTP (or whatever). See classes in the System.Net namespace for documentation of helpful classes, but you'll have to code this solution yourself.

Better yet, why don't you read the previous thread?! His question seems to simply be a question of downloading, editing, then uploading the document. This really has nothing to do with how a Word document is displayed, whether in its associated program (Word, WordPad, etc.) or its automation server is embedded in a different frame - it's all about editing a remote document.
