Abstract
Computational and theoretical developments in lattice QCD calculations of B and D mesons are surveyed. Several topical examples are given: new ideas for calculating the HQET parameters \bar{\Lambda} and \lambda_1; form factors needed to determine |V_{cb}| and |V_{ub}|; bag parameters for the mass differences of the B mesons; and decay constants. Prospects for removing the quenched approximation are discussed.
