Joe,

We do this. (And more) The user activity log also could be used to log
things like what data records the users was looking at. If the
modified the record, if they pushed a specific button or not.
(Basically just a form that is "open at submit" and active links do
PUSH actions to create records. Add a push action where you want to do
logging. Window Open, Active link, on interval, etc...) We even
records client type, client version info too. :)

The only thing to be concerned about is data growth and system
performance. (creating 10,000,000 records in a single table may not be
the best thing to do searches against for every user when they want to
open a new form. :) However, performance is generally a solvable
problem with enough time and resources. :)  And once the data is
collected you can slice and dice it many different ways.

Roger,

Interesting requirement...

How about storing the name of the schema the user opens in db table and
everytime a user opens a form up it stores that form name against his login
name in a record if he has never opened that form before and sets a counter
of the number of times he has opened it to 1.

If they open it again increase that counter by 1...

This could be done with a shared workflow, by excluding window opens if the
open is via a DIALOG as that might not be a true representation of it being
his favourite form...

Exclude the home page too from this...

Have the top 10 forms opened by this user by building a view form from a db
view of this table...

Hope this helps..

Does anyone know if there was a change to the way favorites are stored in
the User tool in 6.0 or later?
