File paths

Hi all,

Storyline newbie here. Please excuse my basic questions. I'm trying to import a PowerPoint into Storyline that has Engage & Quizmaker content in it and I get the following messages (attached). I have the published content created from this PowerPoint, so my question is do I need the specific .intr * & .quizmaker files or can I use the published content? I thibk I know the answer but would like your expertise with this. Thanks all.

Hi Christopher and welcome to Heroes! 

First, I wanted to confirm that you're working in Studio 09, not Studio 13? Currently, Articulate Storyline doesn't support importing content from Articulate Presenter '13, Articulate Quizmaker '13, or Articulate Engage '13. We're working to make this feature available in a free update for Storyline. 

If you're working in Studio 09, you'll want to import the files before publishing (unless you're planning to host the published content on a web server and direct to it within Storyline using a link or a web object). 

Importing from Powerpoint into Storyline is not an exact conversion, but since you've also encountered this error in relation to the Quizmaker and Engage components, which could occur as described here with some work arounds.  Based on your images, one other caution is to make sure you're working with local project files (typically your C: drive) as working on a network or USB drive could cause erratic or unusual behavior.
