Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Stephen L. Nelson's Mastering Quicken 98 imparts a terrific amount of product and financial knowledge with clear, clean prose. This book, and its predecessor about Quicken 6, contains as much useful financial advice as it does instructions on how to use Quicken. The only downside to this book is that, at 748 pages, you may need to use the index to get to the information you really need.

3.0 out of 5 stars More perfunctory than anticipated and contains errors, May 3, 1998

This review is from: Mastering Quicken 98 (Paperback)

At least one window (Create Scheduled Transactions) is missing a button description (GROUP). The book does not address this at all. I could not find out whether it is possible to archive data in the registers and then remove it to reduce the number of online transactions. Does not address performance or configuration optimization as I thought a "Mastering" book would. I anticipated more in-depth coverage which would satisfy an audience already familiar with Quicken.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not worth a nickel, August 9, 1999

This review is from: Mastering Quicken 98 (Paperback)

I have found this book to be useless, and not a bit better than the Quicken help facility. Every single time I have tried to use this book, I have not even been able to find what I'm looking for in the index. Save your money.
