Is there away the answers to a quiz the user has selected can be viewed on a page at the end of a quiz and printed out.

    Michael, I hope you do not mind me to offer another solution? Since I'm always deploying CP-quizzes on a LMS, the results can be viewed on this system, and eventually it is possible to print it out. If working with large groups of users/students download of the results is also possible. You have to report the results to the LMS in the Manifest file. If this is working on any LMS, I'm not sure at all (LMS here is based on Blackboard). This is certainly not the automatic way you are asking for, but no need for scripting because the LMS takes care of everything. For scripting Michael is the man to help you out...

    We dont currently have an LMS but when we do it will be good to know there are things we can do. I was using trainersoft and at the end of a quiz it gave the option tp pint out all the replies with a correct or wrong column which showed how each person answered a question.  We have the problem all staff do an assessment but not all need Excel so it wouldn't matter if they got those questions wrong. I can't do two assessments because everyone would claim not to use Excel

    Hi Devon,

    I just made a sample project to see if it was actually possible to do and it is.

    You can't assign variables on a quiz slide (or any of the buttons) so you would need to add a blank slide between each of your question slides. This slide would the assign a user defined variable with the value from the selected answer on the previous slide. The slide only has to be 0.2 seconds long.

    I attached a demo project here (including the .cp file). Here you will be able to see how I did it and copy the actions and scripts.

    I also uploaded it to my site since the approval process can be rather long here ;o)

    @ Lilybiri - the more the better ;o) I myself use a custom Flash quiz tied into our LMS so it's similar to what you do I guess.

    I guess that you would be able to use some form of user defined variables and advanced actions, but it will be pretty though. If you could define that on each questions slides exit (or on click on the next button) Captivate would take the answer from that question and put it into a user defined variable. (you can use the quiz system variables to get quiz details). Then on the last page you could make an advanced action that retrieves all these user variables and present the answers associated with them.

    I haven't tested it, but it should be possible.
