No, Hypercard for the Mac is virtually a complete programming (or maybe,
better, working) environment which overlays the O/S.  It *can* be used for
ZoomRack-like record keeping, but if that's all you do with it, it's a bit
like using an atomic bomb to kill flies.  There must be a comp.sys.apple.mac
meeting about (or something like that), and if so, I'd bet they could clue
you in.
