Survey: Who reads help?

Survey by SurveyMonk. (Fat, bald and shrouded in secrecy.)

On a scale of 1 to 5 where 5 means you have read every word and 1 means you
haven't read a bit of it:

1. I have read all of SW 2004 help.


2. I have read all of SW 2005 help.


3. I have read all of SW 2003 help.


4. At some point I have read all of SW help.


5. When a new version of SW comes out I read all the What's new.


6. When a new service pack comes out I read all the help to find out what's
changed.


Whe're almost done now.

7. I have read all the KnowledgeBase.


Thanks for participating. We'll post the results as soon as we have all of
them. Have an extremely nice Fall day.

 

Thanks, we're off to a good start.

 

Read as I need. What percentage is that?

 

I have to agree here. I have read a bunch of all of it, but mostly as I
need to investigate something.

4 - A few years bacck I sure made an effort to get through as much as I
could. There are things that I never, ever do, so I skimmed or skipped
ithose items.

5 - I am actually going to make a point of re-reading the whats new for 2004
and 2005. I think the introduction of new stuff is getting so fast that I
have gotten behind and need a refresher on what I've laready read.

4 - I used to make a point of checking it every two weeks, but the
introduction of new material slowed to a crawl so I stopped bothering with
it. I jsut scanned everything that was introduced since 2002 to catch up -
it was only like fifty items in essentially three whole years.
