TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.

I am chiming in because I am the Product Manager for Doc-To-Help and I
want to point you (and anybody else who may be interested) to some
resources.
All these are available for free:
One hour starter training session:
Visit our site, www.doctohelp.com, and follow the links.
Tutorials and Getting Started Guide:
Look in the start menu. You will see some resources there.
How-to articles:
Our support site, helpcentral.componentone.com, has some helpful
articles. Just click on the "articles" link. Be warned that there is
information for our development tools there as well.
Forums:
There are two forums you will find useful. We have a forum on the
HelpCentral site (you can find it under "Community"). Paul Neshamkin
also moderates a Yahoo user group, D2Husers.
Online Support:
You are also entitled to free online support.
We also sell full training (www.doctohelp.com/training).
All that said, new Doc-To-Help users do sometimes experience a learning
curve because it is different than most HATs. Once you get started, you
will find that it is not a difficult tool to use.
If you have any more questions, feel free to ask here or off-list,
