If you are using quizzes in your Captivate movie, there is an easy way to organize and keep track of the quizzes—the Quiz Manager. The Quiz Manager enables you to access your quizzes from one central location. You can view, open, edit, add, and delete quizzes in the Quiz Manager. You can even add, edit, and delete individual questions from a quiz directly through the Quiz Manager.
Open a Captivate movie containing a quiz or multiple quizzes.
From the Movie menu, select Quiz Manager.
