Results of a Quiz in PPoint to Access

[Guest]

Hi,
I don't know if this post fits in this section, sorry if not.
I have a quiz made (took from
http://www.loyola.edu/edudept/PowerfulPowerPoint) in powerpoint which saves
the name of the user and the results.
How can i send this to a database in access?

Thanks

I'm glad you found my site useful. Sorry, I don't cover dumping the
results into Access. I've never done that, but I'm fairly sure it is
possible. Of course, one low-tech way to do it, is to use Trick #1 under
"More Tricks" on my site to save the data to a text file and then import
it into Access. The high-tech way will involve opening your Access
database from within VBA. This site might get you started:

Hello,

Acutally, this can be done, but not with PowerPoint. It is with a
flash quiz.
This is quiz creation tool that creates Flash-based quizzes and let
you send quiz results to a database using ASP or PHP.
