This book has saved me lots of time and stress. No more calling the Intuit helpline and attempting to communicate with someone in the Philippines. The book is well written in non "techie" English and very complete. I highly recommend every QuickBooks user keep a copy handy.

This is a terrific book. I've never used QuickBooks before and this book takes you step by step. It's easy to follow and puts things in plain English. I highly recommend it.

This is THE book as far as quick books goes. It will not tell you the secrets like some of the other books. But it is a definitive manual on the program. Do youself a favor and buy the other two books. "QuickBooks 2009 The Missing Manual" and "QuickBooks 2009 Solutions Guide" to go along with it. One of those three will most likely have the answers that you are looking for.

I have QuickBooks 2009 for the Mac, and I was hoping this book would answer one question I had. Specifically, I wanted to know why the "Copy Invoice" and "Duplicate Invoice" choices in the drop-down menu are grayed out. The book did not address how to copy an invoice at all. As a matter of fact, I am not 100% sure if the book is for Windows or Mac or both; it doesn't seem to address that question either.

I have used Quickbooks since 1996 for my business and as a church treasurer. When I sold my business and became self-employed I thought about using Quicken instead since it was cheaper. I did not like it and struggled all year (2008) using it. Ended up not keeping up. Bought Quickbooks 2009 and will get back to this easy to use program. If you can write a check in your checkbook you can use Quickbooks. You don't even have to use everything that it can do if all you want is to write checks and bills. You will discover how useful some of the other options within can help you manage your company whether its a multiple employee one or just a one owner/employee. I will not stray away again.

I wish that I had read this before I started using Quickbook. The instructions in the program are different then the book The book makes sense out of the accounting parts.

It always seems easy, but it is a lot of work to get used to this product. The book is tedious to read and you need to know more than you would think in order to be affective in doing your accounting with this product. Why can't they come up with an easy version ?

You have to get it to understand the product....but it is quite a project.

It's just what you would think, year after year, very good source and very dependable.

Book came on time and was in excellent condition. Saved almost $25.00 off retail price and couldn't even find the book for sale in my town. Will have no problem ordering from here again.

I received a totally new book although I purchased as a used one. So happy!
