Question

opening Captivate 3 file

Greetings everyone:
I'm a new Captivate user (elearning developer) and I'm having a problem with others (my boss) being able to open my Captivate projects that I send to them for review. I've tried publishing as flash and standalone, and it seems Windows will not allow the file to be opened. Can anyone help a newbie with this simple snag?
Thanks, Ron

Hi Ron and welcome to our community

Here's a question to ponder. Once you have the files reviewed and ready for others to view, how exactly are you planning to make them available? My own guess here is that you will place them on some sort of a server location, then provide a link to the user that opens the file. Am I right?

Assuming I'm right, why not do the same thing for your boss? Place the files on a server, then E-Mail your boss a link that opens the Captivate output file. Keep in mind that you don't have to actually post to a web server. You can also get by with placing on a simple network drive. Then simply E-Mail your boss a link to the .HTM file on the server.

Hopefully this helps... Rick
