As a novice, and nonprogrammer, I find it hard to get help from the help. I 
try. The elementary stuff I can take in. But must of it, as I and others have 
said previously, seems written for those who already know how to do whatever it 
is the documentation might "help" them with. When I can't get help from the 
help I turn to the FAQs--or ask here. It's always a lot more helpful--really!
