I'm working on a Web Service that'll pull FAQs from a Database of mine and display the FAQ and allow the end-user to click on the FAQ to view the Answer.

I'm going to offer this to other websites as a sort of 'Daily Tip' type of thing. I'm putting together 3 different .asp pages that'll consume the web service and display a random FAQ or a couple, depending on what the person wants, in different formats. I'll also offer the other sites the option of consuming the service on their own to display it how they feel.

The FAQs are going to be on Access, Database Design, VBA, Visual Basic 6, VBScript, HTML, CSS, ASP, ASP.NET, VB.NET, and pretty much anything else I can think of. The websites users will have a choice of what types of FAQs they want displayed on their site.

Now here's where I need some help. I've got about 120 FAQs that I'm writing right now, but I want at least 200. I don't necessarily have to have all of those categories as I can just add more later as I move on, but I don't want to start offering it to people until I have at least 200.

Now, if anyone has any that they would like to see, or think would be a good addition could you please comment here.

I'm looking to keep the Questions short, and the Answers can be mid length, just nothing too extensive as that would turn into more of a Tutorial, which I don't want to offer in that manner.

Any and all suggestions will be appreciated. I'll try and get a list of the ones that I am working on now, but it's a scattered mess at the moment.

Thanks All,
Anthony La Riva
