Title: I could learn more by banging on my head with a shoe
Review: It isn't bad enough that neither Microsoft nor Crystal have a practical approach to help people utilize these two technologies effectively, there are actually people writing books that provide the same disservice to those of us developers that just want task specific answers. The last thing that this book does is demonstrate how to integrate Crystal Reports and .NET for any real world useage. After reading this book I don't know how to display and manipulate reports over the web by utilizing user interactivity through parameters passing, but I can make the background a pretty blue color!
