Actually, I learned most of the program using the built-in project wizard. It's step-by-step approach was very straightforward.

One good book i can think of and definately recommend is"Dynamic Scheduling" by Eric Uyttewaal, PMP.

Have a look at Project Mentor available from www.projectlearning.net. This is the best resource I have seen for learning about Microsoft Project.

@Ramakrishna and others: I now publish the same content under a new title called "Forecast Scheduling with Microsoft Project". The last edition of "Dynamic Scheduling with Microsoft Project" I have been involved in was the 2003 edition; a variety of authors wrote the later editions under that same title on behalf of IIL.
Since the 2003 edition, we have added to the "Forecast Scheduling" editions:
a) updated the checklist of best scheduling practices and numbered each practice
b) added a "Forecast Scheduling" add-on for Microsoft Project with which you can automate all 86 checks from the checklist (of which 52 run fully automatic; you are guided by the software in performing the remaining 34 checks)
c) reduced the size of the book to 750 pages by replacing all replicated paragraphs with cross-reference links
d) incorporated the new ribbon features introduced in the 2010 release of MS Project
e) updated to the latest editions of the standards published by PMI
And many more, smaller things. You can check out the book at: www.projectprocorp.com
