I bought the book as a reference. I found that it was little better than reading the online documentation. If you can get to the help then you don't need this book.

I found this easy to follow and feel it will be a good reference book. However, I need something with more depth. I purchased the book to create SAPscript forms out of ABAP reports which was easy to do. There is not enough information on how to further customize them based on particular criteria.

This is the only book on SAPscript. So someone should write a better one. There definitely is a demand for such a book. Using SAPscript often means using ABAP and this aspect is covered well. The actual SAPscript bit is elementary, not providing much more than the online documentation. In particular, I missed tips and tricks for designing more complex layouts, variably sized boxes, up- and downloading RTF documents and workarounds for unusually implemented features (bugs). This book is merely an introduction to SAPscript, nothing more.

This book is an excellent guide for working with SAPScript. The layout is great, especially from a reference standpoint. I use this book quite often for the command reference section. I have several pages flagged that I refer to on a regular basis. The code examples on the CDrom worked well on the 4.0b system I've been working with. Glad I purchased this one.

We are on a newer version of SAP, so I had to adapt some of the screen shots. It's easy to understand. The tutorials and code examples were helpful.

Easy to understand and follow. Will have you doing SAPScript in no time. The book is well organized.

If you have no SAPscript knowledge it is a very good point to start, but nothing more. I like to learn more about exchanging information between ABAP program and SAPscript form (eg. Perform from SAPscript), tips and tricks, etc. Althought it has just a basic staff I like the way it is written - very clearly.

This book is much better than the SAP Script made easy 4.0b. I learned so much that I strongly recommend every ABAP programmer to own one.

Excellent book for Scripting.. Very useful in the real world. Well written and flows smoothly. Easily approachable to a new user. I will be looking for other books by Buchanan.

The book is spoton and easy to follow. However I need to use scripting for version 4.0b. Is there one available for that? Is there one coming out soon?
