    Quiz Program Built in AMS 5 / 6

    Well after almost 2 years, i'm just about done making changes to the Quiz program i've been building for work. It's been through ALOT of changes in the past few month (thats why i havent been on the forum much lately). i updated the create quiz / edit quiz area so that it no longer uses an Excel file. i could never get the LUACOM plugin to work the way i wanted. It works better now anyways. Let me know what you guys think and if you get any errors. i've been running this version at work for about 3 weeks now and i havent had any errors pop up. If anyone wants the scripts, let me know.

    A big thanks goes to TJ_Tigger, Worm, Intrigued, and Corey. You guys helped alot when i got stumped (which was more often then not) Tigger gave me the script to randomize the questions for each test. i had no idea how to do that and he made it look simple!

    Thanks Guys!

    Hi Stickck,
    You forgot to perform a check when clicking on 'New Quiz', to see if the user clicked on cancel or not.

    Other than that, Fantastic Work
    From running the executable, it's obvious that you have put a lot of effort into this

    Very cool stickck! It's certainly satisfying to see all the effort put into a project finally be realized.

    yea i know. i'm always skeptic to changes when i dont have any problems with the current version. i'll update it soon. i wanted to get this quiz program pretty much done before i did the update just in case. i have the update downloaded... i guess i could update it now.

    There are plenty of new features and bug fixes and I can assure you that there's absolutely no reason *not* to upgrade.

    I do understand the "if it's not broke ..." theory, but I think you'll be glad you did

    I have done the exact same thing, not wanting to upgrade when I am working on a particular app. Maybe I have been burnt by other products that break something i have done with their upgrade. I have found the IR is really good about their upgrades and it is all for the better. I only heistate to see what changed and then make sure I run through tests after I upgrade and then preview.
