It's very interesting to see how much input various members have given through the years to Excelforum. I have spent time to just go through different sections here and see what have been posted.
It's regretful that all of this excellent knowledge base that is available "at your fingertops" is not used in any large scale. Looking through the questions it's notable that many issues could be easily solved by using the big knowledge base.
My personal estimation is that > 90 % of all the questions could be answered by just looking into the knowledge base. But I'm also aware of that each user view his/hers issue to be "unique". Life and the life with Excel have learned me that there are nothing that is actually unique. Everything has been done at least one time before
New knowledge is added when new tools are released to Excel but it's more of how to use the new tools since the underlying structure and the issues are still the same.
The question is how to leverage the knowledge base so it can be of more use?
I have seen several different approaches in order to answer this question. But they tend to be rather "dictating" and in the end don't reach the target.
Any thoughts?
