Purchasing Crystal Reports Courseware:
I
have taught over 2500 satisfied students
in the
past 15 years and
I
have always used my own Unofficial
Guide to
Using Crystal Reports.
The 2 volumes (Intro and Advanced)
are not fancy but I like using them better than anything else I have
seen.
So what makes these books special?
- They
focus on
getting the students to understand the key concepts of reporting and
the most common pitfals, not simply where to click.
- They are bound with the
printed pages on the left and a blank
page on the right which makes it easy for students to take notes.
- They
are simple (single
sided black and white text in a comb binding) which makes them an
inexpensive alternative to the standard books.
- Keystroke
by keystroke
exercises give the students lots
of practice with
each concept.
- The lessons have been
tested thoroughly in the
Crystal sample data and can be easily adapted to the students data.
- The
exercises are
placed separately in the
back half of the book, so they aren't in the way if you are using the
student's data in class.
- They do not
contain screenshots. This allows you to teach several
versions of
Crystal with the same book. My latest edition covers v9
- v14 (CR 2011),
while my older edition
covers v6 - v8.5.
These
materials are now available to qualified instructors for $30 per book
plus shipping. (Your initial purchase of
either
title must be for at
least 10 copies).

and Advanced here on my
