The book--Computerized Accounting--comes without the floppy essential for learning. I've had a terrible time using the book without it and have tried repeatedly to get the floppy containing the Quick Book data files that Horne references throughout her book.

I have tried local bookstores unsuccessfully and called and written Horne asking to purchase the floppy. The She has not answered my calls or letter. I'm hoping Amazon.com can help me.

Otherwise, the book contains useful material and is a good help at learning accounting basics. But, without the floppy, the book is an exercise in frustration.

I found this book lacking for my needs. I am a professional bookkeeper and was looking for a Quickbooks book that would show me some of the lesser known aspects of the product. This book kept to the basic material which you need to do the basic functions. I also forgot that the payroll part of Quickbooks is a seperate product in Australia and was irrelevant to me.

We used this book in our Quickbooks class. Combined with the pre-entered data for some of the exercises, it was incredibly useful for learning Quickbooks.

Perhaps it is a bit dated today, but it could still be used without too much difficulty to learn bookkeeping on even the newest versions of Quickbooks.
