Storing and retrieving across days

Post by Josh » Wed Oct 08, 2008 9:38 pm

Hi all,

This is an interesting challenge (Mark?). I have participants that will encounter a random order of 5 texts. Due to time constraints, I want them to do 3 one day and the remain 2 the next. All have to be randomized. The computer will be used by multiple individuals, under different setting, and turned on and off. So, I can't store the values in a text file or anything like that. So, my question is how to do this? Is there a way to store that information in the running program and have it there whether the program or pc is shut down? Other ideas are welcome.

Josh

Hi Josh,

I would require a login to the program, then in a text file or Database store the user name and the texts handled.

Cheers,

Malte
