Robert,
Excellent idea: you should do it! Many would benefit. You (and others)
should also have a look at:
Wagner, J. (1998). Pairing General Purpose Computer Programs to Analyze
Qualitative Data. Cultural Anthropology Methods, Vol. 10, Issue 1.
This is a very good piece describing a method for using MS Word with
FileMaker Pro for a code-and-retrieve analysis style. CAM would also be
an excellent outlet for the piece you're thinking about writing (or for
any other methods pieces any of you may be thinking of).
I also appreciate your suggestions for addressing some of these issues
in the 2nd Edition. We wrote only very briefly about these types of
approaches in the 1st edition. Will have to look at how more on the
topic will fit. Thanks for the suggestions--we'll keep them in mind.
Best wishes,
-Eben
