Books

Looking for suggestions on some good books for Reporting Services that will
get me up to speed on its functionality. A book with a good index, good for
beginners, good reference book; that will hopefully get me up to speed pretty
quickly on utilizing Reporting Services.
Thanks in advance for your help.
wnfisbawnfisba,
I bought Wrox's Prof SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services book a month ago,
and I was disappointed.
I was very disappointed when I tried to learn about the ReportViewer
control. There were only a few pages that dealt with it, and it really didn't
get into the good, stuff.
I wanted to use the control on remote servers, and it didn't explain the
issues on setting the credentials.
I would have re-titled this book - - Beginner SQL Server Report Server, for
it really only touches high level topics regarding the SSRS 2005. However, if
you want a lesson in developing WinForm application, this is your book.

for Dummies" book very helpful, especially for context and concept (how the
pieces fit together and why).
