More About the Author

I Graduated from the University of Florida as an Electrical Engineer. My specialty was electronic engineering and robotics. After working as an engineer for a while, I ended up in New York City, where I became a MS Windows programmer. After working with Windows for several years, I moved into other areas, such as database design and reporting. I worked at several major banks on and around Wall Street, up until 9-11. After, 9-11, I have mainly concentrated on training, consulting and writing books and training manuals.

My entire life, I have strived to be the very best. A goal that is unreachable, but still desired. I have tried to create the best training material for Business Objects and I continue to do so.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolute Best BO Training Manual, March 23, 2005
This review is from: Business Objects: Complete Report Writing Course (Paperback)
It has taken a while, but I think that someone has finally written a book that actually teaches you how to use Business Objects. It starts with the basics in a totally original teaching plan. After the basics, it dives into more advanced topics that are supported with fantastic examples. In fact, I have already created several of the examples for my company. This book is awesome and it will make you a much better BO professional.

2.0 out of 5 stars A USER'S Beginner's Book, September 8, 2006
This review is from: Business Objects: Complete Report Writing Course (Paperback)
If you're a developer looking for some handy tips and tricks...well, keep looking. This is definitely a beginner's book, and may be useful for users brand new to BusinessObjects. Honestly, based on the price of this book I'd pass.

2.0 out of 5 stars Mediocre Texbook on Business Objects, March 3, 2006
This review is from: Business Objects: Complete Report Writing Course (Paperback)
This book is clearly for the beginner to intermediate user as I was able to find most examples and recommendations using examples, etc. in the help files. Most of the examples were obvious and lacked sufficient detail and a 'what if' analysis. However, the web site they provided for help was extremely useful. In fact, I recommend using the web site as the source for inforamtion in place of this book. I found answers to all of my questions on this web site.
