LLTI,
Does anyone use PowerBuilder as a development tool?  We are looking at
designing a log-in feature for our labs, and we know for sure that we
can create an executable with PowerBuilder that will log a student in
and keep a database of the times.  However, we are wondering about two
things.

Can we keep the database on the server so that ultimately
students could download the executable file at home and still log in and
have it access the database?

Is there a way that Powerbuilder can be made to keep track of the
activities of the computer.  (i.e. default log-off when the computer
goes into screen saver mode, keep track of websites visited, etc?)

Does anyone have a suggestion of another tool that might be able to do
these things?

Thanks!
