A colleague is designing a quiz. Part 1 is for everyone, part 2 for members of a specific department. In her design there is a slide at the end of P1 with 2 buttons. If the user selects one button the quiz continues, and the idea is that if he selects the other the quiz ends and goes straight to the results. The first button works the second does not. I am guessing that this is because going to the results at this stage is illegitimate. Can anyone confirm this please? Or if not suggest another reason?

    I don't think you want to do what you're describing.

    My understanding is that Captivate sees all graded questions in a file as a single quiz, so the folks who only take "part 1" will never be able to get 100%. They'll never get a chance to answer the rest of the questions, so they'll "fail" those.

    You'd be much better off creating two files and then linking the "part 2" folks to the second file. This will allow the results page to show full credit for both groups.

    However, if you're using an LMS, I think you're unable to link between files anyhow. For SCORM 1.2 at least, you need to link to each file from the LMS or the results tracking won't work.

    I'd come to the same conclusions about method, but as this is not my design I wanted first to see if it would in fact be possible if the owner of the project wanted to persist. In some ways it's easier to say "this can't be done" than "I don't think this is the right way to do this", especially as the two-file method also has its drawbacks. But before saying "this can't be done", I need to be sure I am right!.

    Thanks for the input tho' which at least makes me feel my reservations about method are justified.
