Summary: BLAH!!!!
Review: As the bookkeeper for a start up internet company, QB for Dummies was helpful as a quick tutorial and overview. If you run a small family business, this is the perfect book for you. But if you're a company that expects to grow (as many of us startups are hopeful of), there's just not enough detail. I am now forced to look for a different book that will give me detailed help in creating the reports I need for financial analysis. Good thing I was given this one for free...

Summary: Informative and Entertaining
Review: This book made a hard program easy to use. He has a good sense of humor, which makes tech stuff easy to read. You won't have to read the book with a cup of coffee. I tried to use the program without the "Dummies" book and got nowhere. After reading the book, I have everything in balance and working. Thank you Mr. Nelson.

Summary: BLAH!!!!
Review: This book sucked and didn't help me at all. Yeah, maybe if I would have read every page front to back I might have understood this program a little more. But who has time for that? And who wants to read a reference book anyway? I got it so I could reference it when I was having trouble with quickbooks. You can figure a lot of the program on your on; but it's the details that are lacking in this book and it's the details you want. I ended up hiring a contractor to come in and teach me the program.

Summary: Too much sizzle not enough steak
Review: When I first started using this book I thought it was helpful, but when I needed help and information about entering transactions, I realized the shallowness of the book. The author knows a lot about business issues, but I needed bookkeeping help, I needed to understand what to do and why to do it that way. I recommend you buy Quickbooks The Offical Guide instead if you want to learn Quickbooks inside and out - which is the only way to get the software to do exactly what you need.
