"Professional Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET" by David McAmis is not bad, from what I've heard. Also here are couple of links to Seagate web site, you can get some usefull sample codes from there:

George Peck's CR8.5 manual has a chapter on .NET integration.

Otherwise check out

http://www.crystalreportsbook.com

He has published a free book for .NET developers incomplete so far, but some useful stuff there as well. Editor and Publisher of Crystal Clear

I have both the McAmis and Peck books-- Peck gives .NET a single chapter, but the "Professional Crystal Reports.NET" devotes a whole book to integrating reports with VS.NET, including chapters on web development.

I also have checked out the free Crystal Reports book on the website mentioned and can't reccomend it.
