Description mvinar 2003-08-21 11:03:54 UTC
User problem:
-----------------------------------
The user typically needs to perform some task and
when he gets stuck trying to find help on how to
perform the task in the on-line help. Typical help
system, organized around the product features is
not fulfilling this need very well, since the user
needs to use searching to find out which of the
features covers the task.

User need:
-----------------------------------

Product requirement:
-----------------------------------
Improve the on-line help content to be more
task-oriented
