Customer Reviews

Business requirements driven Reporting Book

Most of the technical books on the market are organized to address a specific technical issue. This book allows you to search based on business requirements. This is a very unique approach and helpful for developers. Additionally, there are many effective working examples. It also discusses different reporting tools such as VS-View, Crystal Reports, Active Reports, and OLAP.I would strongly recommend this to any company which uses more than one reporting package.It is a valuable reference tool. It will certainly be helpful in making technical/reporting decisions.

Hits All Important Issues

A clear concise guide to the ever changing landscape of reporting tools and their myriad uses. The discussion of different data source types and example code for each case was very useful to me - from Office to VB6 to .NET, it's all here!

A Reporting Bible!

Clear, practical and concise coverage of almost every reporting topic and technique. Chock full of examples and side bars, beginning to advanced users will find something worthwhile in its pages. Coverage of popular reporting tools such as Crystal Reports and Active Reports prove informative, but more informative, interesting and cost effective yet was the discussion on using the ubiquitous Microsoft Office as a reporting tool from VB6 and VB.NET. I found the authors' advice on creating general purpose criteria screens for reporting, invaluable in several of my consulting projects. If you want to weigh your reporting options, become a better report smith, build a reusable reporting library and impress your clients, buy this book!
