does anyone have the Excel template to use for importing questions into storyline and quizmaker? The link on the Importing questions article for the Excel template is not opening correctly.
The "Download this template" link in item 1 of the "Importing Questions from an Excel Workbook" section. When you click it, it opens a web page with gobbledygook text like it's reading the entire file as text. I tried right clicking it, to "Save target as", but the file that is saved is an .htm file.
Thanks for that update Dorothy - and different web browsers may open files differently so always a good idea to see if you can change the file extension.
Agree, however, if there were a different kind of link like the attachment you added here, or at least a note to all us poor, captive IE users, it certainly would be helpful.

Hi Eric,
It's opening normally for me - but I attached the excel file here for you.
Hi, I just tried the link in the article before sending to a friend and it didn't work for me either on IE11.
Hi Dorothy,
Can you tell me what link you're referring to? What element didn't work on IE11?

Oh, eureka! I opened the 'import_templateeoz3qu.htm' file, and it had the same gobbledygook. Looked closer. It was definitely the Excel.
I just changed the extension to .xls and it opened.
