pmscraiova,
When I've had to make this kind of "Demo" of my application before, I've used a video & sound capture program (there are dozens out there) to simply narrate my progress through the application. Then, this creates about a 30mb file that I send to people so they can view it without my being there. Also works great as a training aid. Very cheap, and very easy to implement. Whack it on a CD, or copy it to an FTP location, and you're off and running.

Best Regards,
Scott

Thank you very much, Scott. Can you suggest me such a video & sound capture program?
Thank you again,
Eugen

Lotus makes a very nice one called ScreenCam. Part of their LotusSuite.
Works well on Win9x/NT/2K

I think that Lotus ScreenCam (or something much like it) comes with DemoShield, too.

There is a called Camtasia (

bundled with SnagIt (screen capture util) and DubIt (used to add audio to your video capture afterwards).

Personally I use a program called FlashCAM (

and it is great for doing screen or video captures. It outputs it in Macromedia Flash and you have the ability to add captions and input prompts. This is a great feature for creating fun and interactive training for users.
