title: Crystal Reports 7: The Complete Reference
author:  George Peck 
description: <i>Crystal Reports 7: The Complete Reference</i> is the best Crystal Reports book around for users who have progressed beyond the "baffled novice" level. Even for newcomers to Crystal Reports who are willing to experiment a bit, this book will prove satisfactory. It's worth the cover price. Particularly praiseworthy are the sections on programming with formulas, in which the author explains details of the Crystal Reports formula language (such as variable scope, time functions, and sorting) that other books don't cover adequately.

  There's some reaction these days that  
  holds scientists responsible for war. Take it one step further:  
  What happens if “book-learnin'“ is held responsible ...?
