Hello, Can anyone offer and suggestions on using HyperCard, SuperCard, or FileVision for doing a quick prototype of a geographic information system. The major problem with this system is that is has to be usable by almost novices and may be set up in public. Probably the base map info will come from either existing CD-ROMs or CDs designed for this project. I'm torn between FileVision and either HyperCard or SuperCard. I need the draw capabilities of FileVision and the ability to move layers back and forward but I'd like to have HyperTalk or SuperTalk to extend the FileVision interface with some 'rules'. It's been suggested that some people use Tempo to create macros for FileVision. Any suggestions much appreciated. --Thom Gillespie
