What happens when...

You're one of the people who often answers people's questions in the forums but you're then stuck on a problem of your own and you don't have anyone to help? Penalty of being good at what you do I suppose :doh:
Formula 1 - Short for "F1 Racing" - named after the standard "help" key in Windows, it's a sport where participants desperately search through software help files trying to find actual documentation. It's tedious and somewhat cruel, most matches ending in a draw as no participant is able to find anything helpful. - Shog9 Ed
You find out where the MVPs hang out. Ask your question there. If the MVP doesn't know, then they have access to people at Microsoft who should have the answer. If it is a question concerning a non-Microsoft product find out where people who are experts on that product hang out. Joe Brinkman Microsoft MVP - ASP.Net

Is it a secret location that I must beat out of someone, only to find that they're strong enough and have given me the wrong place? :)
As of how to accomplish this I wouldn't have a clue at the moment and I'm too lazy to google it

Already done me mate, thats why I posted on the C# forums. I did find the answer I was looking for on about the 99th page of results. [wandering off into lab]Must optimise search parameters...[/wandering off into lab] :rolleyes:

I try to ask someone not to long out of school. You get a fresh, untainted, sometimes off-the-wall answer that may or may not be what I'm looking for, but it usually starts me thinking down a different path to where I figure out what I need to do. Also Google it but don't get booged down in the results. Sometimes that jar's my thoughts into new directions.

Done, first thing that happens. Well actually google with this "problem site:codeproject.com", find an answer on this site if available first :->

Finally someone else who has a problem with their head size :rolleyes:, actually it's my neck that's bigger at the moment due to (no sympathy please) a lymphoma.

A recent research project found that: It's more likely that a person who already have helped you before will help you again than that a person you have helped will help you...

Wow, you sound like you were pretty determined to find the answer :) I would have given up after about 5 pages :->

Life or death situation :) Being payed for the hour so might as well randomly click on some buttons for a few hours to try and solve it. Plus the project couldn't really continue easily until I solved it. There was a work-a-round but it involved a complete redesign from the ground up X|

Putting into the perspective of being paid for it, I'd find that more motivating :)
