CP4 Access/Excell import - Quiz result email sending

Hi - sorry for my bad english - i'm good in order a beer, but in technik a loser, so don't beat me.
First question: is there any way to fill up a quiz-pool from a Access or Excel database?
Second question: What can i do to send the result of the quiz to a email-account?
I have insert a email-address, but it is not working - maybe i have to do more ?
Thanks a lot for your help.
Friendly regards, Wolvo
PS.: If it helps for more understanding i can send this in german too

Hi Lilybiri - thanks a lot for your help.
If a customer like to create a big quiz perhaps for schools a.s.o. is the work on the base very time expensiv.
The quiz-pool in CP4 is helpfull, but not very good to handle - so it's maybe a good idea, to got a extern data base.
I have reporting to a email address anabled, and on the end of the quiz appears a buttun "send" without any function.
Maybe it is a problem of CP4 with W7 64 bit?
It would be very helpfull to report the resolved test to a email.
Friendly greetings, Wolvo

Excel attachment in external email sending

Hi guys.
Just having a bit problem in my excel attachment in external email sending (internet). The contents of my attachment are being considered as one column per line item, which is supposedly divided into columns according to its tab or space.
example: i sent this :
PO# Poitem
A 1
it will be displayed in excel as:
column1
PO# Poitem
A 1
it should be like this:
column1
column2
PO#
Poitem
A
1
can anyone tell me what additional fm(s) do I need to implement before calling fm: SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 to send the email.
thanks a lot!

How do I include the quiz taker's name in the Quiz Results email?

I'm using Adobe Captivate 4. I want to include the quiz taker's name in the Quiz Results email. Is there to do this?

My experience with Captivate is minimal. Once again, the version that I am using is Captivate 4. I am not using an LMS. When someone takes a quiz and submits it, the email that I receive only contains the quiz ID and the test results themselves. I would like to be able to have the results include the user's name or at least his/her email address. Is their something that I can do with a variable to accomplish this? Or, is their some sort of third party widget available?
Thanks Gene

Subject line for quiz result email

Hello,
I am still working with Captivate 2 and I am wondering if
there is a way to set the subject line when emailing the quiz
results.
Because I have several Captivate projects with quizzes, I
would like to distinguish between them.
Thanks for your help,
Matt

Hi Matt
Sure thing. Where you type the E-Mail address, tack on a
question mark followed by subject= so it looks like this:
[email protected]?subject=Any subject here
Note that if you left it at that, Captivate will advise this
isn't a valid address and the dialog won't dismiss. What it's
balking at are the spaces. To overcome this, use %20 where you have
a space. In this case, the line looks like this:
[email protected]?subject=Any%20subject%20here
Cheers... Rick

Send quiz results for users without Internet access

We have a group of developers in India who do not have internet access. I have created an eLearning course in C4 with a quiz at the end. For most users, they take the course through our LMS and we can report results without a problem. However, we have a group of developers in India who do not have internet access. Is there a way to capture name and quiz results and send them via email? Alternatively, we can open up a port to access Connect, but I still need to report name and quiz results.
Thank you,
FG

Hello,
Are those users connected in a network? If yes, with the version of Captivate 5 (will be available shortly) it will be possible to have the results send and stored on a server.

Printing Quiz Results

Hi, I have a course that runs well on our LMS, but I have
some users who have no connectivity and requested a CD version of
my course. I easily created the menu and attached the individual
lessons as exe files. When I got to the quiz, my boss asked me to
have the students print out the quiz results and send them to our
administrator. Since Captivate 3 won't let you add a button to the
results page, I created a flash button and added the animation to
the results page to try to get a print of the page. So far in the
flash button I've tried the: getURL("javascript:window.print();");
approach and the: printAsBitmapNum(_parent, "bmax"); approach.
These will bring up the windows print dialog and proceed to print a
large version of the button on two pages. I've run out of ideas,
does anyone know how to get around this Captivate limitation?
Dale

Dale,
Check this site
It contains lots of widgets for Captivate, one being the
inclusion of a print icon in the playbar to allow this sort of
thing.

Sending results of Quiz via email

We are playing with the email function here, sending the results of a quiz to an email address.
This seems to work fine however we all have outlook email accounts assigned to our usernames here at the college.
The problem or issue is:
When this quiz goes live it will be used by people who will not have a username/email account, so when they click "Send Email", will it work? Basically, do you need to have an email account to be able to use this function and send the email?
We tested it out by logging on as "admin" on the computer, going to the URL where the quiz is stored and sending the results via email....didn't work because there was no webmail profile associated with that user.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there,
Unfortunately sending quiz results via email is plagued with difficulty, as described on our Frequently Encountered Issues page.Please refer to this for more details.

Outputting quiz results to E-mail / Excel

Hi everyone,
I am a multimedia computing student currently on placement at
an organisation. I am designing an e-learning package at the moment
and am fairly new to Captivate. I have designed a package which
consists of 6 question slides. I have set the project to send the
results of the quiz to my work's e-mail address. I'm trying to find
out if there is a way of getting Captivate to directly output the
results to an Excel document. I have read numerous articles on this
site regarding outputting the results to an Access database and
would use this method, although my workplace unfortunately does not
have ColdFusion. I have also read the article regarding manually
importing the results from the e-mail into Excel, but have been
asked by my supervisor to see if there is way for Captivate to
automate this process. If you guys can help in any way, it would be
greatly appreciated.
The organisation does not currently have a LMS either, so I
can't even output the results to that. On top of that, they want me
to find a way of identifying when somebody has been through the
appication, but without a LMS I guess Captivate is unable to do
that. If you can let me know whether this is true too, that would
be brilliant!
Many thanks in advance for your help guys.

Would your office, department, and/or township be willing to
look at an
LMS? There are a few free and low-cost LMS products out
there...
Gaftop's solution is decent but shouldn't be limited to ASP.
Since Captivate can run javascript functions that are present
in the
parent HTML page, just make calls to that JS, which then
posts to
whatever backend page you have setup to receive that POST
(ASP, PHP,
etc). Then have the backend page update the database.
This does, of course, require some sort of web server.

Quiz results not appearing in email body

Using Captivate 2, I set up a quiz that is supposed to send
its results to e-mail. In the Quiz Manager, on the Reporting tab, I
have the following settings:
Enable resporting for this project (checked)
LMS: email
Report Pass or Fail: report status as defined by report data
Choose report data: report quiz results and slide views
Report score to LMS as: score
Reporting Level: report interactions and the score
Then I publish my project. When I run the .htm, no e-mail is
generated. The only way I can get an email to generate at all, is
if I click on the Pass/Fail Options tab in the Quiz Manager, and
set "If passing grade:" action: send email to: (the email address).
This does generate an e-mail, but the body is blank, with no
results reported within (even though I specifiying that I want the
data in the above settings).

I'm trying to do the same thing... having set up a small
quiz, a pass mark, and asking for an email to show the score only,
nothing is generated running it locally. But after uploading to my
server and running it from there I do in fact get an email. The
data is in an attachment POSTDATA.ATT which Windows doesn't know
how to open. But if you change the extension to csv then XL opens
it fine and reports as requested. The user is identified by the
sender of the email.

Hey,
try this one.

    CATCH cx_bcs.
      MESSAGE e445(so).

        send_request = cl_bcs=>create_persistent( ).
Now create document object from internal table with text

          i_att_content_hex    = binary_content ).
    add document object to send request
        send_request->set_document( document ).

    create recipient object
        recipient = cl_cam_address_bcs=>create_internet_address( abc at abc.com).
       recipient = cl_cam_address_bcs=>create_internet_address( 'abc at abc.com' ).
    add recipient object to send request
        send_request->add_recipient( recipient ).
        sent_to_all = send_request->send( i_with_error_screen = 'X' ).
        COMMIT WORK.
This will definitely work .if any doubts aask me.

How to send quiz results to a web page?

Okay, this should have taken 2 minutes, not 2 hours. Very frustrating. Here is the situation:
* Downloaded Captivate 5 Trial Version
* Created based quiz (which took forever to figure out how to set the correct answers -- HORRIBLE user interface for setup, but that is another issue)
* I want the results sent to a web page. I will code the web page & database calls, etc. to handle the information (I am a web developer). Just need the information sent somewhere!
Several big issues here:
1. When setting up a URL for the "Pass or Fail", nothing happens. User not taken anywhere. No "Post Results" button shown. The Captivate file just ends and that's it. ??
2. Finally figured out that I needed the "Internal Server" option chosen to have a Post Results button shown. Okay.
So when I click Post Results (after answering the 5 questions correctly), I am shown a login box. Why? What is this for? This is not needed. I am going to an INTERNAL SERVER. It is none of Adobe's business what this person's name/email is. What gives? Okay... anyways, I enter my own Adobe login information. It then says "Connecting..." then I get a Status Message that says "Unknown Error". Keep in mind this will be used by a general audience, of which approximately 99.9% will not have an Adobe ID, nor should they need one.
How I can easily have the Captivate file redirect the user to pages like this: Confirm.aspx?pass=yes or Confirm.aspx?pass=no.
I don't need anything fancy. But I do need something that works. This is terribly frustrating and I'm about to say it just doesn't work. Please tell me I am wrong.
Thank for your time and for reading this.
-Randy

The Quiz Results slide's Continue button actions are set under Quiz Preferences > Pass or Fail > If Passing Grade etc. By default, the Continue button is set to just continue on to the next slide after the Quiz Results.
After the user clicks the Continue button on the Quiz Results slide any Pass/Fail actions you've set up there will be evaluated and executed.
So if the user achieved a passing score, and you set up an action such as Go to URL in Current Window for that case, then the user should find themselves redirected to that URL. If there was a different action for Failure, and the user failed, then that should happen. But either of these will only happen after the Continue button is clicked.
I tested this by setting www.google.com as the go to URL and it worked. To see if the URL is the issue, try using another URL that you know everyone can get to. If that works, try to find out why the URL you want to use is not working. If no URL works, something else is interfering with the action.

How do I see email address (LearnerID) in Quiz Results Analyzer

Useing Captivate 5.5
Reporting Quiz results to a local server.
Q: How can I see the "LearnerID" (students email address) in the Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer?
When the student clicks on "Post Results" and enters their name and email address in the pop-up window the email address is collected. You can see the email address (LearnerID) in the resulting XML file that's saved in the CaptivateResults folder.
Problem is I can't see the email address in the Analyzer, and don't see an option to include it. How can I see the "LearnerID" or the students email address in the Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer? From here I want to export a CSV file.

Thanks for your response. The quiz results analyzer is awesome, but without the display of email addresses it is not a total solution.
I'm using an internal server and what I found out is that the .xml file that Captivate creates in the CaptivateResults folder (that Captivate also creates) contains the email addresses.
So, rather than use the analyzer, I will have to figure out the best way to view email addresses from the xml file. If anyone has a solution that you are happy with, please let me know.

Sending flash quiz results to an LMS

Hey Guys,
Using Flash CS3, having issues getting flash to send quiz results to a LMS. Using the Flash quiz templates, exporting with SCORM 1.2 compliance. The LMS is able to track times attempted and if the lesson was complete or not, however the quiz results don't reach the LMS.
I think this can be resolved in the actionscript or the javascript that gets exported with the HTML file
Apparently you can control the javascript functions with FScommands from actionscript
Something like fscommand ("LMSSetValue","cmi.core.score.raw" + "," + integer);
I don't know where in the actionscript this should be triggered from
I can't find documentation from adobe about this function
Has anyone else come across this issue?

In case anyone was interested in an answer to this
Apparently fscommands are an older way of getting data to an LMS
The current way of doing it is using an external class to handle calls to and from the LMS
Philip Hutchison's site http://pipwerks.com/ has alot of helpful information on this topic
A good starting point is here http://pipwerks.com/2008/04/27/how-to-add-basic-scorm-code-to-a-flash-movie/
Hope this helps someone

Identifying Which Quiz in Emailed Results

I have quiz results for multiple elearning modules all going
to the same email address. When I look at the results, I cannot
tell which module the person actually took. It just looks like
this:
Core Data
"Status","Location","Raw Score","Max Score","Min
Score","Time"
"passed","12","100","100","0","00:09:19"
Is there something I can do to make the quiz results I get
identify the module they are originating from?
TIA,

In my group, our published filenames reflect the tutorial,
module and lesson information (via the "Project Title" field in the
Publish dialog). We use this to uniquely identify each lesson when
the user takes it.
For brevity, we use an abbreviation for the tutorial name,
followed by the module and lesson number, and the full text lesson
name, as in "msoffice_0402_creating_a_template". Note that we do
not use spaces as these are problematic when used in file/folder
names on the web.
You can leverage this idea to automatically include the
published file name in the e-mailed results.
Modify your sendMail() function in the appropriate e-mail
template file in the C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate
3\Templates\Publish folder as shown below. After republishing, it
*should* include the filename in the body of the e-mail.
I say *should*, since Captivate being the unreliable beastie
that it is, your mileage may vary.
As far as securing the results, there are scores of posts in
these forums that mention methods for doing so. They all revolve
around 2 basic concepts, which both involve creating a server-side
mechanism that intercepts the results and passes them on to a
server-side reporting solution of your own design. If creating a
web application isn't your bag, then the built-in reporting
options, warts and all, are going to be your only option.
Regards,
John
