thanks :-)
You can get started cheaply by looking on e-Bay and search for reloading manuals. Generally, Lyman Reloading Handbook #48 and Speer Manual #13 have excellent beginner information so that you can get started safely. It isn't necessary to have the latest manuals as long as you are loading for an established caliber as the .45acp. All the manufactures of reloading supplies offer free manuals for the asking. Good Luck and don't forget to read and ask questions if you are not sure what to do. When you are buying supplies, ask for help at the local supplier too.
Finally, you want as many manuals as possible from different sources. Compare all of them before beginning and follow the formulas to the "T".
There are on-line loading sources, but get the manuals and read them before you start. That way you will know what equipment you need and how to use them.
