Customer Reviews

Thorough coverage of features, worth the money

I found this book to be very thorough and cover a lot of ground. I only had some minor issues with working the exercises. You do have to remember to read carefully how to go get the download of the code as it is missing off the CD. I got a lot out of working through the whole book.

UPDATED REVIEW

Initially, I was disappointed by the fact that key files for the book's examples were not available on the accompanying CD. Within a week, Microsoft posted a download link for the outstanding files. Most pleasant. In keeping with SQL Server Analysis Services Step-by-Step and DTS Step-by-Step, this book is a fantastic way to pick up the necessary skills to work with Reporting Services. Like the other Step-by-Steps, this book takes a very practical approach to teaching the subject matter. For those of us with a backgound in .NET development, the CD contains 3 additional bonus chapters neat topics on (among other things) extending and customizing Reporting Services for our appplications. Like I said in an earlier review for DTS Step-by-Step, I hope Microsoft keeps up this great trend going forward with publications covering SQL Server 2005. ACD (MCDBA)
