We are currently investigating different ways of capturing data while people are using HyperCard stacks. Ideally we would like to capture everything that happens i.e. key strokes and mouseclicks and store this with a time stamp and also information about what was on the screen at that time e.g. button, field, background, card, stack names. Has anyone had any experience collecting this type of information? Please send email directly to me.
