I just don't get it! Every day people post the same question. Do they think they will get a better quality answer today than all the previous answers already posted? What are the odds?
There are different people on-line on different days. These in turn, give a different quality of answer depending on their mood.
If I were researching a particular task I would want as much information as I could find on the subject. On many tasks, there are a lot of different approaches offered. Maybe the one offered today is not the best over all. Maybe it's even real bad advice. Maybe only the specific question is answered and other factors weren't even discussed.
Take a recent case. Someone wanted to know how to parse a particular key in an INI file. The person was not using ReadProfileString() but rather recursing with ReadLine(). Any other day, someone may have provided an answer to work with ReadLine() instead of showing that ReadProfileString() was the way to go.
The point is... today's answer may not necessarily be the best answer! Use the search tool!
