Hello Everyone,

I'm using Captivate 9. I have a project file that contains 90 questions. I need to set this up so that when someone takes this course 25 questions come up at random out of the possible 90. The 25 questions needs to be random every time the course if started. It would be GREATLY appreciated if someone would give me some guidance on this. Thank you!

    Create the question pool (Quiz, Question Pool Manager). When you are ready, you'll have to insert 25 Random Quiz Slides, using Quiz, Random Question slide (or CTRL-Q). Beware: you will not get a new subset when retaking the Quiz within the same session. But if the course restarts a new random subset will appear.

    Thanks for responding. So I have 90 quiz slides ready to go. I now need to create a question pool and add 25 random question slides and the program will know to pull 25 from the possible 90? Is that correct? Just making sure. Thanks. I'm new to Captivate.

    Indeed, that is the work flow. You create the pool within the cptx-file.
