SQLSquare Review:

SQL Server Reporting Services (SRS) is a state-of-the-art reporting solution from Microsoft. With great customizability and a strong enterprise focus for publishing reports to users over the Web, the solution leverages the strengths of the Windows server platform very well.

My overwhelming impression is that the book (Hitchhiker’s Guide to SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services) is an detailed, user-friendly, very well organized, and fun to read book. The book covers Installation and Configuration of SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services, all the supplied Reporting Services tools and the Visual Studio Report Designer in great depth. The book is filled with tips and techniques in addition to numerous step-by-step examples. The book covers all the related technologies and shows how to put all the pieces together for a successfully developing reporting solution using SRS under different scenarios.

The walk-through videos included on the accompanying DVD makes learning the subject much easier. The videos walk you quickly through the most important tasks and makes learning much easier.
