Doors are sticky and noisy when opened?Doors are sticky and noisy when opened?

We have several old doors in our house, with possibly a great deal of paint build up on them. As a result they are very difficult to close solidly (and then open) - they stick a great deal. Is it better to "work" on the door or on the frame, and how do I find out where exactly they're sticking, and then what is the best way to resolve it?

How can I find out where a door is sticking?

We have several old doors in our house, with possibly a great deal of paint build up on them. As a result they are very difficult to close solidly (and then open) - they stick a great deal.
