Does the job, but they're not all easy steps!
It worked for me!

I was looking for a step-by-step guide to setting up reporting services, but didn't have time to read the whole book before trying to get it working. Although the reporting setup is reasonable intuitive for those familiar with Visual Studio, there were several details I needed to look up in the book as I was working. I had some troubles getting the security to work, and in some other areas the book doesn't contain sufficiently detailed knowledge for a scan-reader to find the answers easily. Possibly if I had time to sit down and read cover-to-cover I'd be better informed!
