Need to create a "Help/How to" demo on our Intranet site Precious Princess 5/18/2007 3:56:01 PM I'm new to the community, so hopefully I'm in the right place for this question... We would like to find a product that will help us record a live demo on several “how do I…?”. We would like to make this tutorial available on the Intranet so that users can simply click on “how do I enter a purchase order” (for example) and the tutorial will show them a live demonstration on how to accomplish this process. Can OneNote do this? If not, does anyone know of a product we can use for this task? Thank you!

Re: Need to create a "Help/How to" demo on our Intranet site Jonathan 5/20/2007 9:36:01 PM Kathy, you are a modest one! I suggest you post the location of your recent excellent friendly and accessible (to techie and non-techie alike) on-line session about OneNote. It might act as a good model for support of that kind of process change. You might know other examples with other technologies. I may choose to foster this kind of technology uptake at my elementary school, so I love seeing all the possibilities. Forgive me if this doesn't fit your current sense of a best practice for such a task, but I liked your friendly tone and sense that "Yes, you can do this... it will be worthwhile and easy enough.."

Re: Need to create a "Help/How to" demo on our Intranet site "Kathy Jacobs" <call_kathy[ at ]knot.cox.net> 5/20/2007 11:47:45 PM Thank you for these wonderful words... They are much appreciated. I do have a couple of video tutorials available on the TechSmith Blog and am always trying to find time to do more for my own blog and site. I did do a video based OneNote class for one of the major providers, but they never ended up making it available. -- Kathy Jacobs, Microsoft MVP OneNote and PowerPoint Author of Kathy Jacobs on PowerPoint Get PowerPoint and OneNote information at www.onppt.com I believe life is meant to be lived.

RE: Need to create a "Help/How to" demo on our Intranet site Precious Princess 5/31/2007 7:34:00 PM Thanks a million for your response! We were able to get a 30-day free demo for this. We are testing it now to see if it works for our users. Great tip, and thanks again!

Re: Need to create a "Help/How to" demo on our Intranet site "EMRhelp.org" <EMRhelp.org[ at ]gmail.com> 6/2/2007 4:40:39 AM I'd use Adobe Captivate for recording the screen and making a peppy Flash demo. SnagIt or Camtasia are not as peppy, IMO.
