If you are familiar with using Windows applications (eg: Word, Excel) then you have the basis for learning how to use this application. Its friendly drag and drop interface makes it very easy to learn, especially if you are used to the drag and drop environment with Windows.

How often have you come across scenarios where people are dumping data into Excel to then manipulate it to get a result? And then doing the same process again at a later date to analyse new data? Well, setting up a Crystal Report to sit across the datasource is simple! And Crystal Reports can read data from a number of datasources (eg: MS SQL Server, Microsoft Access, Microsoft Excel, Java Beans - you can even report from your Inbox or Contacts in Microsoft Outlook!).

Crystal Reports has the power to professionally format your reports to meet your business or personal requirements. Graphs, pictures, conditional formatting, lines, colour, summaries, formulas and a huge amount of other features can be easily applied to give your report the look you want.

In order to learn more about Crystal Reports, and reporting in general, we offer a number of courses addressing these needs:

Crystal Reports XI Level 1
Crystal Reports XI Level 2
SQL Fundamentals

NB: if you don't use version XI (also known as version 11) don't worry - differences between the version you use and XI are pointed out as all courses progress.
