I think the original request had to do with an address book, but I've
needed something of the sort. In doing computer-based training, I've had
to be able to report participant responses to open-ended questions which
were sporadically placed throughout the training materials. One client
wanted the participants to be able to look their answers over before
posting them. So I set up a card with question and answer fields which
displayed the questions and answers. The fields were updated with an
openCard handler that copied the contents of the specified fields.
