Title: HyperCard help needed
Post by: Lemmy on January 09, 2009, 05:37:28 PM
We have a magazine business and were using HyperCard as a database for customer info, their ads and it's our financial software program. My Dad now has Alzheimer's and forgot how to do HyperTalk scripts. Now we can't extract financial info like A/R, A/P, GST, etc... We can't produce a financial statement anymore. I have it all in my laptop and willing to meet with anyone at a coffeeshop or at your convenience to help me get this info so we can do our taxes and such. Thanks. Mike

Mike,
Just for clarification, does the HyperCard stack run? Is the problem a password prompt? Or is it the problem that you don't know how to run the stack? HyperCard runs only on Mac Classic. If the stack is on your laptop, is it an older laptop (i.e. non-Intel-based) that allows running Mac Classic?
