 Kudos! June 18, 2006

I usually don't write reviews. In fact, the very action of me writing this review should note how impressed I am with this book. It's a clear and consise text which addresses both the fundamentals and the hidden "expert knowledge" of reporting services.
I am a contractor, and I don't think I could have finished my latest project without this book on my desk everyday - seriously.
Great info in a small form factor May 29, 2006

I liked this book because authors did a very good job packing a lot of good information about various aspects of Reporting Services in the book. The book was effective to learn about Reporting Services and handy as a reference afterwards. For example when I needed to alternate colors in a table I immediately found the reference to the topic. This book also covered reporting from Analysis Services (OLAP/MDX and Data Mining/DMX), Larson's book lacked in this area. Section on integration of the Reporting Services in an application was easy to follow and use in my work. The book has a compact design which makes it easy to carry around, especially when you are traveling.
A book I can use April 1, 2006

Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services makes using the software easy to understand and easier to use.
Good book - but codes samples nowhere to be found June 27, 2006

I've written many reports using SQL Reporting Services 2000, but it's been a number of months. This book was a good review to get back to speed on it, and covered a number of topics new to SQL 2005 as well as topics I did not know. This is a good book, but the code samples referred to often are not on the SAMS website. Because of this, a person who is using SRSS for the first time may want to choose a different book. I liked "Pro SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services" when I first learned the topic, and now they have a 2005 version.
 Generally OK August 24, 2006

Generally this book is ok. The content of the book covers all the features of Reporting Services, which is good.
There aren't a lot of examples, but there are still some useful ones.
The only thing really frustrating is some of the custom code examples flat out DO NOT WORK!
Overall decent, good information, but not very deep.
