It doesn't get better than this |
I've only been working with Crystal for a few weeks but am already putting together some pretty decent reports. I could not have done it without this book. After such a short amount of time my copy is somewhat dog-eared and filled with yellow post it notes for quick reference to the things I need. It is open at my desk whenever I work with Crystal.
If you are a Crystal novice this book provides an excellent foundation for Crystal Reports. If you are an intermediate/advanced user there is plenty here for you as well. I especially like the financial twist the report provides since most of my reports are payroll, general ledger and accounts payable/receivable related.
The discussion forum associated with the book is also an excellent resource. I was "stuck" on a couple issues and was helped by both the author and other users on the forum. |

Essential Reference for Financial Reporting |
|
Bischof's book is a complete, well-researched reference that quickly arms a novice Crystal Reports user with the techniques necessary to create sound, well-formatted financial (and other) reports. The appendix on Balance Statements and Income Statemens is a fabulous jump-start for those who must get up to speed quickly! If Crystal Reports is your platform for information delivery, this book belongs in your library. |

Excellent Resource and Tutorial book |
This book - like others written by Brian Bischof - is well laid out and clearly written. It has many excellent examples, and they are easy to find and utilize. It is also quite apparent that he has gone to considerable effort to illustrate the many new features that are to be found in CR XI.
I have had to purchased numerous books in the last year, trying to understand the differences between Visual Basic ver. 6 with Crystal Reports ver. 6, and Visual Studio.NET 2003 with its version of Crystal Reports and beyond to VS.NET2005 and CR-XI. Brian's books are the only ones that I have close at hand for when any problems arise.
