Customer Reviews

Worth the money and the wait.

Even though I have used Crystal from Ver 2 this reference still gave me some useful tips. Also it explained some of the concepts that were in the help screens but in a much clearer manner (with screen shots). A very good A to Z guide without the indepth treatment of all Crystal's features. I am still waiting for the Complete reference to be published but given the lack of published material available it is worth the money.

Must-have valuable asset for any IT professional

Prima's Official Guide to Seagate Reports 7 is a must-have valuable asset for any IT professional. It gives the best overview of report structure and creation I have seen. It's easy to harvest many practical put-to-use gems from the pages of this Crystal Reports guide. This well-planned guide will help you to provide information to your firm's decision makers in timely fashion because of the many useful examples that are provided. This guide presents basic topics in a clear manner and makes advanced topics easy to grasp.

The Best Crystal Reports Book By Far!

There is helpful information in this book that you can't find anywhere else. I took a BridgeBuilder Crystal Reports class (which was AWESOME!!) and learned of the book after class, it certainly reinforced what I learned from the class. The Linking chapter is excellent!

I can't say enough about how great this book is!!

No other book about Crystal Reports can compare to Prima's Offical Guide. This book is the easiest to understand and is extremely user friendly. Since I recently took a BridgeBuilder training class for Crystal Reports I found that the book gave a lot of "extras" that made using Crystal Reports a breeze! I highly recommend this for anyone using Crystal Reports.

This book is a must for anyone publishing to the Web

Information on the internet made publishing reports easy! Seagate's Internet model is great. The screen shots made understanding these concepts easier than Seagate's manual.
