There are loads of ways of running scripts, so that shouldn't be a problem.
AppleScript has a property feature that may offer what you want. Values of
properties are stored in a compiled script. These will be remembered until you next
edit and compile the script, so they should last even across restarts.
The hardest job will be to provide information to a database field in AppleWorks. My
attempts at scripting the database in AppleWorks haven't been very successful.
