Hi Dave Sounds similar to BB, will download it and take a look as well. The neat thing for me is that I can show someone how to do something via a video clip without jumping in the car and driving over to them!
I've also used an earlier version of Snagit which always was a nice product.

The best thing about Viewlets are that they can be really compressed down in size as the end product is a selection of linked screen shots not a continous video stream. Also the ability to add in highlights/notes once you have captured all the screen shots is simple and elegant. If I was to recommend one product than this would be it.

Low cost, not free though.

See http://qarbon.com for more information. I don't, however, use the microphone/sound feature for 2 reasons: 1) I don't think my voice is nice to listen to for any length of time <g>, and 2) it keeps my file sizes low without the sound added. Sound adds a huge part to the file size. --Michael -- Michael J.
