Captivate 4 Questions coming up blank.

Question

I'm having some major problems with quiz answers not showing up.
Just the Letters from the choices show on the slides (About 7 Questions slides mixed in the first 43 Slides, there are a total of about 85 slides)
Muliple choice and single choice graded
Questions slides after 43 all work correctly
Check Boxes show
Check boxes are unrelated to the the correct answers because when I mark the correct boxes I get the Incorrect answer texts.
Captivate is running on Windows XP Pro 32 bit SP2.
Captivate with latest update (build 1658)
Published on two different XP Pro 32 bit machines with same result
Publishing as AS3 script.
I've resized the project at least once.
I original had the project in it's infancy as a AS2 file in captivate 3 but quickly changed it to AS3 and captivate 4 with the preferences check boxes.
I tried creating a new blank project and copied all slides into it, but the the slides at front still had problem.
Edited on a third machine Vista 64 bit Captivate 4 Build 1658, added a question before slide 43, moved a question slide that was before slide 43 to end and published.  Saved CP file. All questions work now.
Opened saved CP in XP Pro machines again and published. Slides before 43 all broken again. Interesting enough the question slide I moved to end still works.
Both XP Pro machines have had Captivate 3 installed. On one, the Main editing machine Captivate 3 is still installed along with Captivate 4 on the other Captivate 3 was uninstalled and Captivate 4 added .
I can not install SP3 of XP Pro.
Captivate 4 is running as Administrator on the Vista 64 bit machine
At one point I had edited the file on Captivate 4 Vista 64 bit and then brought back to the XP Pro Machine for final edits.
How do I get this working in XP Pro 32 bit? Am I missing something between the two versions?  I think I could move all question slide to end and navigate back and forth but this is fragile at best. I wouldn't want to be trusting that this will work three weeks from now.

Answer 1

I've ironed out a lot of the bugs in the questions
now.  Had to move all the questions to the end of Captivate project and set all questions to only 1 try.
I use advanced actions to jump to and away from the questions slides. Basically if I've been to the questions slides don't jump there, jump to the next slide. This action is run on the slide before the question, for example on slide 12 I must jump to slide 64 if I've not been to the question slide yet, other wise I jump to slide 13,. On the slide after the question set (A blank slide with a continue button, I use the same advanced action which will jump to slide 13 as I've just finished the questions).
The questions being moved to the end of the project was done to get around the initial problem with Questions coming up blank earlier  in the project (About 1/3rd the way in, question slides would appear blank but when placed at the end of the project they would show up correctly and again only after I had moved to a Vista 64bit machine, not sure if the 64 bit operating system was a red herring but at the point of the move things that where not running started to run, including advanced actions).
Each of my questions had 2 tries on them with two captions (The first caption to say that the response was wrong, try again and the second one to say incorrect the correct answers are.) After a certain point in the slides (even when moved to the end) two incorrect answers would stop the slide from advancing, to advance had to use the progress bar or multiple clicks on the Play button, clicking "anywhere" just wouldn't advance. I moved back to just a single try and the advancement problem disappeared. Hardly a real solution as I want the student to actually think about a incorrect answer as opposed to get the right answer no matter what they do. I didn't want to enable review as an alternative because I was having so many problems with slide movement as it was never mind adding review to the formula.
I also had to simplify several complex animations that used the timeline. In a nut shell, one Continue or Next Slide button per slide. Working with multiple buttons at different timeline markers was unreliable. I found that occasionally you would have to click a second time on transparent buttons to advance the timeline. When this clicking problem happened I would find that some slides later, a transparent button programmed for next slide or Jump to Slide would instead jump back to the slide in which I had to click twice. As soon as you adjusted the timeline (which was more an act of praying too ones god) so that you only had to press it once,  both the the jumping back to the slide in question and the single click would work for a bit (Once it was working don't go there till it breaks again)
Nihaar, I'll resubmit my working project to you so you can see the problems that still reside in the show. I'd love to not have to stand on one leg while juggling three balls and one machete. It would be nice to just have to stand on one leg, the machete and three balls just come unnaturally to me and I'm always afraid that I'll be left standing holding just one ball.
Advanced actions:
The following Advanced Action is for the final lesson final info slide, It jumps to the final question set (L7 Review 1)  or to the next slide (Congratulations slide) if the questions have been seen. The script also shows the play bar (First question slide of a set turns the play bar off). Note that Q7Complete is a user Variable. When you declare the variable set it's value to 1 (In some computer languages 0 can be problematic, so I, as a habit use 1).
This Advanced Action is run on a button in the last info slide where you want to jump to the question or not  and on a blank "On Slide Enter" that you have added after the last question of the set. The "On Slide Exit" of the blank slide should be set at "No Action". If you forget to set the "No Action" the "On Slide Enter" advanced action will not navigate away from the blank slide properly.
On each question set the first question slide,  set the "On Slide Enter" to set the cpCmndShowPlaybar = 0 to hide the play bar during the question slides.
Please note that you should order the questions sets first to last when using this method. Do not mix up the order as I found that making questions mandatory (not a bug but a good feature) causes a problem in the navigation in and out of the question slides. Also ensure the person does not visit the questions a second time as this causes the questions already answered to reset. Each set of questions has it's own User Variable and Advanced Action.
Check if   ( Q7Complete not equal to 2 )
begin
          Q7Complete := 2
          Jump to slide L7 Review 1
end
or Else
  begin
         Q7Complete :=2
         cpCmndShowPlaybar := 1
         Jump to slide Congratulations
End
