How can I require an answer to each quiz question?

I want to require that an answer is provided on each question before the quiz-taker can advance to the next question.  Ideally, there would be a popup telling the quiz-taker to "please select an answer" when they try to click Next.  Currently, clicking Next gives them an "incorrect" popup when they do not select any answer, but still allows them to advance to the next question.

Which version do you use? If you don't allow to have the Skip button (Quiz Preferences), nor the Back button, and keep the caption Incomplete  checked that is the default behavior of quiz slides in Captivate. If the user doesn't choose an answer, the Incomplete message will pop uy when he clicks the Submit button.

If you talk about D&D slides, this is bit different. I created a blog post to show a different feedback when no drag action has occurred before clicking the Submit button:

Thank you so much!  We're using version 8 and it was the Incomplete button that wasn't checked for each question.  Now it's working correctly.

You're welcome! It helps to give a more detailed answer if you mention the verrsion you are using. I cannot remember the default setup in CP8, because I no longer have that version.
