exporting variables to be read in a Google docs spreadsheet
I've seen Tom's helpful screencast on how to embed a Google docs form into a Storyline project. However, what I want to do is a little different. I'd like to be able to export the values of about a dozen variables from Storyline so I could see them in a spreadsheet the way I would if students entered those values into a Google docs form.
I've got a grammar assessment, and I want to export a student's name and either OK/NEED TO REVIEW/MIGHT WANT TO REVIEW for each of a dozen or so topics. Now, I could just use a final page screen in Storyline showing a student her status on these dozen topics and ask her to fill out an embedded Google docs form in which she basically copies the results manually. These are just initial assessment scores, and I'm not worried about honesty issues. However, this seems like a pretty klutzy way to do things. Would anyone be able to help me out with a suggestion for a better method? I don't know any JavaScript, and my familiarity with Storyline is fairly low.
Thanks!

Hi, Edward -- I'm sorry if there has been a miscommunication, but basically, to edit the info that is displayed on the threads as far as your phone numbers, etc., all you need to do is look for the EDIT button under your own posts in the thread itself. As you are the author, you are the only person with the authority to edit your own posts.
You will see the following under any of your posts:

Simply click on the EDIT choice 2nd from the left, and the box will open up and you can delete any information you wish. Hope that helps!
And Edward, the only other thing I can suggest if you choose to reply via email moving forward is that you would need to remove your signature information in your email itself before you send your response (so that it does not appear here in the thread when it is posted). Does that make sense?
Hi Marie-Pierre,
You may want to visit the Google docs site for information on how to get started with an account, as that's outside the purvey of the ELH forums.
As for the Javascript, I'll have to defer to the community as it's not something we're equipped to support.
Thanks Tracy for the offer of assistance.

Thanks Tracy! Definitely a popular thread.
Thanks Mike for sharing the additional bit of code here.
Delighted to see that you found the help you needed, Killian! :)
Thanks for that update Tracy - this thread is a popular one, so I'm certain it'll help other folks.
No sweat, Tracy. Thanks for your help.
Read the posting 3 times. Still clear as mud. =)
