Help file TOC Sentence VS Question

[Robert Courtney <bobsc1 -at- earthlink -dot- net>]

I have usually used questions in my help files on how to do things. I
use sentence headings for some things such as objects that I need to
discuss. Such as:

Time Cards
    What is a Time Card?
    How do I Create Time Card?
    How do I View A Time Card?
    How do I Search a Time Card?

VS

Time Cards
    What is a Time Card?
    Creating a Time Card
    Viewing a Time Card
    Searching a Time Card

Is there really a preference to using a sentence TOC and headings vs
questions to accomplish tasks?
