Does anyone look at online help?

Some of these questions make it pretty clear the questioner hasn't even
made an attempt at finding the answer in the help pages that come with
..Net.

What is UP WITH THAT!?!?!?

Sometimes looking through help is like looking at an electrical technitions
map of New York city and trying to find out the voltage comming into your
apartment. Sometimes you can, sometimes you can't. After failure to find,
people search elsewhere. Some of us are technical enough to search through
the index to find what we are looking for. Some of know how to screw in a
lightbulb, but are clueless what a technical breakdown map is.

And, MS Examples are not always helpful, they only make somethings even more
confusing.

P.S. The Object browser is your friend! I get more clues from it than all
those endless help docs.

Do .... and than click F1.

He is not forever getting nice replies on answers like this.
