I downloaded the latest available Help file.
I note that is has again been 'redesigned', I suppose to conform with the latest MS standards for Help docs.

VERY sadly there has been no change whatsoever as regards "Return values" and "Parameters" - specifically:
- for "Return value" describe WHAT is returned as well, not just what TYPE;
- for "Parameters", where applicable tell the DEFAULT VALUE beside the parameter "title".

Seeing the amount of manipulation that was done to get everything to the new format makes it extra disappointing that these simple yet SO EFFECTIVE changes were not addressed at the same time.

cheers
