Here's a (unsupported) workaround from the ever-creative Dave Moxon that requires 2 separate content items (or more, depending on how many quizzes or surveys you want to track), but allows you to pull a second (or more) Quizmaker '09 quiz or survey into your Presenter '09 course as Web Object(s):
Q. Doesn't Articulate create a FLA file? If they are open them in Flash CS3, create an array in the Action Script to store the values. On each quiz you push a number onto the array. At the end of project recall the scores stored in the array and sum them and display the final score. Piece of cake.

Flash cannot write to a text file so the only way to obtain a grand total would be to keep tack of each score result and push that onto an array and then total it at the end or declare a total score variable that is updated after each quiz and then divided at the end of quiz for a final score.
Basically you need flash because you need to change the FLA file created by Articulate so that you can store a value. Then you need to create an array and after each test you need to push that value onto an array. The other option would be to simply create a variable to store the score and then after each test add to the variable with the final score being divided by the number of tests. Again, if you don't own Flash you could download the 30 day trial and then alter the file. A good place to see examples of this is on YouTube or doing Google searches on Flash Arrays AS2. I have a programming background so for me this is easy but for novice users this may seem daunting.

If you are trying to add more than one quiz to a presentation it is not possible to get an aggregate score, sorry
Thanks
Hi Ehsan,

Can I store Result into a text file in my pc so that I can retrieve data and can show final result??

Hi James,
The idea you shared is good I think..but I don't understand, how do I do this? Can you please tell me the way of process step by step.
Thanks

Just noticed a post by Phil. He mentions Quiz Maker does not output a FLA file so my solution will not work.
