Don't waste your money
Maybe I need a book for super dummies, but I thought this book was a total waste. I have the basic version of Quicken 2003 and this book spent most of the time talking about the Deluxe and Premier versions. Even when Basic was mentioned, the screen shots were never the same nor were the menus.

It isn't much better than the on-line help menus (and they are almost useless). I am using Quicken through trial and error and hope to eventually figure it out. If not, I can always go back to my old Excel spreadsheets.

An Outstanding Reference
Answered all of my questions. Far superior to struggling with Intuit's opaque "Help" file. Gives great "How to" advice and leads you through a do-able set-up in a very capable piece of software which is - in my opinion - poorly explained in its own accompanying documentation. A real help.

Easy to understand and follow
This book is great. I needed a computer program to track my investments and my income and expenses for tax purposes. I bought Quicken but was dismayed at how hard it was to get going with the software. This book laid down the basics so that I could understand them, and got me into the sophisticated stuff such that I feel I'm getting the most out Quicken.

I'm tracking my investments. I can turn on Quicken and see right away how my investments are doing. My financial picture is finally in order thanks to this book and the advice it gave me.
