We demonstrate that a single convergent close-coupling calculation of 100eV electron impact on the ground state of helium is able to provide accurate elastic and inelastic ({ital n}{le}3 levels) differential cross sections, as well as singly, doubly, and triply differential ionization cross sections. This is a most promising step towards the development of a complete electron-atom scattering theory. {copyright} {ital 1996 The American Physical Society.}
