Lyn

you are psychic! I'd just loaded about 30 .java files in order to build
a freinds multiple choice quiz over a network application. Essentially,
the issues with it are that it uses an Access database and the jsdk2.1,
so it's not that portable. I'm going to try and build it so it'll run on
Squeak and MySQL. 

But I'd thought that there must be an easier way for those who don't
need the network stuff (and don't have the space/time/energy to install
MySQL). Looks like you've gone a long way toward providing that!

It's not the approach I'd have taken (the flashcard metaphor, although
it's probably better than the text in boxes, press button for the right
answer approach I'd have used) but in the 5 minutes I've played with it,
it seems to work just fine.

Thanks!

Cheers
