I always purchase Visual Quickstart Guides when I buy new software because generally they make the task of learning the product that much easier. This one is no exception. The guide that comes with the software is extremely difficult to understand because of the way it is written - they go into too much detail. VQG explains things in a way that a is simpler for a non-technical type person to understand. The only problem with this guide is that it is now out of date because VectorWorks has now released version 11.5 and obviously some of the things written in the guide no longer apply. I would still recommend it though.
