Is there such a thing as a user manual or user guide for Rational Team Concert alias Doors Next Generation? I prefer to browse a manual (on-line or paper) at my own pace, not wade through hours of videos, which are more marketing than informative.

Just for interest's sake, what did you mean by "Rational Team Concert alias Doors Next Generation"? (I strongly agree with your preference for a manual over videos :-).

As I understand it, Rational Team Concert was recently renamed to Doors Next Generation. That is why I named both in my question.

The product that got renamed to DOORS Next Generation is Rational Requirement Composer.

I suggest starting with the knowledge center:

These URLs mostly point to lists of videos. Some are good, some not so good. Either way, it is an ineffincient way to find specific information. Maybe I'm "old school" but I prefer to glance at a table of contents or do a global search for a text string. Even looking at an index in a paper manual is quicker than sitting through a collection of videos hoping to hear what you need to know.

Can I get the help file without access to the product?

Did you really look at the URLs I provided? The knowledge center links are the help system.

It's all about the answers!
