Does anyone outhere know how to write externals to HyperCard 1.2
that enables one to work with random access files. We are writing
a large database, and we would like to store all the data in pascal
random access files, as FILE OF RECORD --- and merely use HyperCard
for designing the interface. We have had very little success in doing
this and we would be very grateful for any suggestions.

please mail ckb@daimi.aau.dk if you have any suggestions

Thanks in advance
