Question

I've got a GIFT file with 81 questions in it, however when I import it into Captivate 2017, the system only brings the first 33 questions in.

How do I get Captivate to bring in all 81 questions?

 (I've done this before in the exact same format with a different exam and had no problems...)

I double checked and there are 2 spaces. No matter what I try, the system only uploads the first 33 questions and then stops there.

Why don't you email me your GIFT file and I can check it for you. Send it to paulwilsonlearning at outlook dot com

Not sure why it isn't working for you. I copied and pasted it into a Notepad file, saved it as UTF-8 and it imported fine. It isn't a problem with your GIFT syntax.

Make sure you have two line breaks after each question block. I know that's a requirement for GIFT format. Check that because it might just look like you have two line breaks because of text wrapping.

Can you post your question 34 here so we can see what is causing the problem?

Questions 34 is:

::Multiple Choice:: According to the Safway personal protective equipment policy, hard hats and safety glasses are to be worn… {~During erection and dismantle only ~On industrial jobsites only =At all times while in the yard and warehouse along with all jobsites ~Only if the customer requests it}

I also tried uploading questions 34 through 81 and when I did that, it brought in only the next 10 questions.  :/
