I haven't tried this specific application, but I'd look at the "target"
function in HyperCard which can return various properties of objects, such
as the name of the button which was just clicked.  You could get the name or
number of the button which received a mouse-down and update a corresponding
count in a container; that is, have a container which holds a summary of the
responses for all the questions - each line in the container could be for a
different question (treat it like an array).  Please feel free to send me
email directly if this quick-and-dirty response isn't clear.
