In addition to Kevin's suggestions, you could setup a table or two in your
database to store this data for ease of reporting. For example, create a
stored procedure that will insert information like:
1. current user
2. time stamp
3. current page
4. report displayed
5. criteria used for the report
6. some special feature (button) used
7. Whatever else you can dream up
etc ...
Then create wrap this code in a single method or class to be reused whenver
you need it in your app.

Hi, I have written several Windows based applications and I have always
had an "application log" which captures username, machinename etc. As I now
turn to web based applications I would like to capture any similar
information, either server side programming or client side, and log it.
My question is, what can you capture and how do you best capture it?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
