I know, not a very interesting and exciting topic or book but I have got to learn Quickbooks for Nonprofit and by golly I will before it kills me!!!!! The book is really easy to learn from and you know how the dummies books are, they are rather humorous. I hope that I will finish it. That is my plan!
I didn't read it word for word but I consider it read. Now to apply this beginning in July will be wonderful!!!

I like the book, the author is kind of funny, for an accountant. I hate the product. I can't believe how such a terribly designed product got to the top of the market. Ridiculous. Anyway, the book explains how to do those things that you can do in Quickbooks, and provides some helpful warnings when you can't.

Nice, easy way to learn about Quickbooks. As long as you don't need CPA quality skills, I would recommend.
