5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent introductory book . . ., May 12, 2007

By	D. Reddy "www.EveryBodyFIT.net" (www.DaveReddy.com) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: QuickBooks 2007 For Dummies (For Dummies (Computer/Tech)) (Paperback)

I own a single employee service based business and recently made the jump from Quicken Home & Business to Quickbooks 2007 to prepare for growth, (and to appease my accountant). Quickbooks will take several hours to set up and get running for most people, and nothing beats good old trial and error experience, but this book helped a ton, especially when initially researching and preparing the initial "defining" of my company file. I own several Dummies' books, have always been a fan of the style of writing, and this book is no exception. Presently, it is the only book I have assisting me in running Quickbooks, and so far, it has been sufficient.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Latest Revision of the Best Selling Software, February 10, 2007

By	John Matlock "Gunny" (Winnemucca, NV) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: QuickBooks 2007 For Dummies (For Dummies (Computer/Tech)) (Paperback)

First, if you're running your own business you are required by law to keep accounting records using some sort of common-sense accounting system that clearly reflects income. That's net income, after legitimate expenses. The IRS wants their share, and if you don't have an accounting system, they will do it for you and you won't like the result.

Second, why use QuickBooks? 1. Using a computer is a lot easier than doing it by hand. 2. QuickBooks is cheap (especially on eBay), fast, easy to use, and well accepted by big brother at an audit.

Why use this book to learn QuickBooks? 1. Stephen Hunter has been doing Quickbooks books since at least 2000, he's had lots of practice, lots of time to expand areas that were unclear or to fix errors. 2. For Dummies books are well written, well edited, just a bit of humor in between the dull computer stuff.

Of course being QuickBooks 2007 this book is up to date with the most current version of the software. You just as well stay up to date as it reflects the latest changes in the tax code, and it doesn't cost that much more.
