Good book on Reports?

I'm reasonably good at all the other parts of Access except reports...
splurged and spent maybe $10 on Access Reports for Dummies. And I
think I paid about twice what it was worth... are there any good
resources on it? Well, besides Crystal's website, which doesn't get
into reports in detail?

I know I could buy Simpson's book on Access... Anything specifically
on Reports, though?
 
I have Access Developer's Handbook, Litwin and Getz, Sybex; both Access97
and Access2002 versions and they both have an extensive section on reports.

I have that already... I was hoping for something simpler and
complete. I guess my problem is that I'm stupid when it comes to
reports (hence the post!)... the For Dummies books are just that. If
you're *completely* clueless, then they're okay. If you have any
knowledge at all, they're generally too simple and lack anything like
depth. What I was looking for was more stuff like creating subreports
etc. Or do subreports work essentially like subforms (well, the
linking/filtering part)?

I'm looking for one that walks me through creating reports without
being lazy and using the Wizard. (The wizard is nice, but the only
way to learn is to do it all yourself until you know what Access is
doing under the covers... )

Any suggestions?
