Make PPT Quiz Game Report Card - percentages, no. of correct answers | PPT VBA Macro Tutorial

[@LearnerCB246]

My dear old friend, it is that time again where I can use your valued help and tutoring, I watched several of your last PPT tutorials, [Quiz] and as usual, the message you left behind was powerful.

[@larrybeach2894]

OK, LOL I actually answered my own question. The VB code lets you know it is correct or wrong. So COOL!

[@PPTVBA]

Hi Larry! Glad that the tutorial helped out! You can also customise your MsgBox by using: Output = MsgBox("Your Answer is Correct!", vbInformation, "Correct Answer!") and Output = MsgBox("Your Answer is Wrong!", vbCritical, "Wrong Answer!") This will add an icon to your MsgBox along with the system sound effect!

[@larrybeach2894]

@@PPTVBA thank you, I will definitely use this.

[@pgurjar25]

Thanks a lot sir , its made easy for me

[@robertnadeau1549]

Great tutorial. Really got me on the right track. I do have a question. The label boxes in the SlideMaster. I can make then transparent in the slides but once the calculation takes place they become opaque again. Solutions?

[@PPTVBA]

Unfortunately, the transparency doesn't work as intended. If you can change the colour to that of the background, it would be the best way to proceed. Else, you can use normal shapes instead of ActiveX Elements. I'll upload a video on how to use normal shapes as counters tomorrow. Thank you!

[@bibintharian4093]

Awesome tutorial.... You are great...

[@PPTVBA]

Thank you so much 😀

[@chillaxmusicplaylist]

Very nice tutorial... Can you add how to identify items with correct and wrong answers?

[@PPTVBA]

For this, we will need to have separate codes for every question. If we have 6 questions, we need 12 codes (6 for correct and 6 for wrong). This process becomes lengthy. I'll try to make a video on this or you can contact me at [e-mail] where I make these for a small fee.

[@meenapatel4579]

Nice superb

[@larrybeach2894]

Another question, My slides are setup with 201 questions, with one incorrect slide, and a correct slide after each question. In your example I see you don't have any correct answer slides. Is there a better way of doing that instead of an additional 201?

[@MarisolRamos-1971]

Excelente gracias 😊

[@larrybeach2894]

Question? When you go to Slide Master. and add all the things like the labels, and shapes etc. when I do it and close out the slide master. It makes all of my quiz question have the same design with the labels etc that I created on my congratulations slide. Is there a way to make it not change all of my slides?

[@PPTVBA]

Duplicate your slidemaster first and make the additions in the newly created slidemaster. If all the slides are changing even after this, select all the slides, go to layout > choose the blank layout of your original slidemaster.

[@larrybeach2894]

@@PPTVBA Thanks, I got it fixed.

[@TotuusEtsija]

Great tutorial! :) Straight to the point, well presented, easy to follow. :) Can you please tell me: - Is it possible to have the quiz without the Message box appearing after CA or WA? Or maybe having an 'Error' & 'Info' box with according Windows sounds? - Or even better - to be able to have separate YES and NO slides instead (like what you had in your video from 2015)? - And/or to add sounds, when you click the correct answer? (I tried adding it in the "Action Settings", but then it just plays the sound and does not continue to the next slide.) - Is it possible to get the Report on the last slide, without needing to have a separate slide and clicking the button?

[@PPTVBA]

This is a wonderful comment! Thank you for the in-depth questions. 1. Yep! Instead of vbOkOnly in MsgBox, do try "vbInformation" or "vbCritical" to have the Window Default Sounds. 2. Definitely! We can also have the answer box turn green or red. I have a tutorial ready! I just need to publish an article on my website for the same and I can make the video public! 3. Yep! That video includes sound also! 4. In my newer tutorial, the 2020 edition if I may, I will be having a "next" button that would take me to the next slide. They can click on different answer options but only the first click is recorded for the ending report. So, in that "next" button, we can code the "Show/Calculate result" sub-routine! Thank you!

[@TotuusEtsija]

@@PPTVBA Thank you for the reply! I really appreciate it! :) 1. I tried it - it works! :) 2. I also tried the version with regular YES & NO slides (2nd slide for WA, and a CA slide after each question) and adapted the code accordingly. I was sooo happy when it worked! :) But it does mess up the scoring, because after a WA, they can answer the same question again. Don't know hoe to fix that. Hope you can help with this as well - in a comment or in your next video. ;) 3. & 4. I will wait for your new video. :)

[@PPTVBA]

2. Yes! Instead of having a hyperlink that takes us to the last slide viewed, try this code: Sub nextslide() SlideShowWindows(1).View.GotoSlide (.LastSlideViewed.SlideIndex + 1) End sub

Hi dear I want to do a quiz to 2 group, i want to know how can i the point total of each group?

[@shasteeswaran]

Super dude.

[@PPTVBA]

Thank you xD

[@doverdragons5296]

Wow! Great tutorial love it, question how can I see if I would like to know which question were wrong? and also when i test the quiz at the end the results are duplicated there's two with Correct answers, two of wrong answers etc.. how can I fix that

[@PPTVBA]

I'll be make a tutorial where you can export a student report card to excel and see the questions which they answered incorrectly and which they answered correctly. Regarding the duplication of results, can you send me the file to my email? I'll take a look. [e-mail]

Hi Bhavesh! these tutorials are really helpful! I worked on it, but, when I click Retry, the course does not jump to question 1 which in my case is slide 94. Can you help?

[@PPTVBA]

Can you show the code which is within the retry button?

Hello, Thank you very much for the excellent tutorials. I'm creating a Quiz for my students and I was wondering if it's possible to automatically send students to a specific slide depending on the number of wrong answers? Something like this (I tried this but it didn't work): If WA.Caption = 2 Then ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow.View.GotoSlide (5) Big thanks

[@PPTVBA]

Yes! You can! Your code is actually correct. I can have a look at it if you still need it. You can send it via email. Apologies for the late reply.

@@PPTVBA Hello, my Quiz work fine now, thank you 👍

Why can't the macro-enabled show presentation run in another device especially when the file is downloaded from the internet?

[@PPTVBA]

You'll need to change the macro security settings. Go to develop >macro settings >enable. The person who downloads the file will also be given an option to enable macros the first time they open the file.

[@adventurestar3519]

Hi, my ppt is running fine, but the calculation button and retry buttons are not working. I used codes from given links ..but not working . please help me

[@PPTVBA]

The most common cause of error would be that your Label Name and the Name mentioned in the codes might not be matching. They have to be case-sensitive. Feel free to download the free template from my website

[@bhattnirav322]

Dear Sir Pls reply I am not ble to run code ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow.View.Next after clicking once on on answer. When i click on two different answers than i move to next slide

[@PPTVBA]

That could be because of the animations which you have in your slide. Try this code instead: With ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow .View.GotoSlide (ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow.View.Slide.SlideIndex + 1) End With

[@lyricsong9109]

I pasted the codes from your module and even tried to follow the steps from your video. The results are not being shown. :(

[@PPTVBA]

Can you download the free template which I have uploaded in my website? Please cross-check the name of the shapes and the name mentioned in the code. It has to be case-sensitive.

[@gfsadsdf5795]

i think i know what it is. you may have not enabled macros. go to file, options, customise ribbon, and check developer. then, go to the developer tab where file, home, etc. are, and click macro security. tick 'enable all macros' and exit. hopefully this helps!

[@PPTVBA]

Also, @gf sadsdf can you please send the file to my email, in context to our email correspondence.

[@speedstartechnicalinstitut1055]

Thanks. Nice. How to reset the file after attempt made by one student and another to start on the same file?

[@PPTVBA]

Just make all the label's captions to equal 0. I have shown a Sub Reset in the video if I remember correctly.

[@anjurawat1420]

Thank you! But I am facing a problem. In my quiz, I followed all steps, but it is not showing calculated points

I am not able to move on next slide even after clicking once on correct or wrong answer. After clicking twice I am redirected

[@PPTVBA]

Try using View.GotoSlide(2) instead of .Next in the code.

[@bhattnirav322]

As there is some animation in my slide i am not able to move to next slide..

@@bhattnirav322 Yes, that is why use GotoSlide(2) instead of Next.

Thanks for prompt reply. But after puting this code GoToslide(2) i am redirecting to the slide number 2 which is not my next question slide. I dont want that. After my first question slide next slide is the slide having options with highlighting the correct answer and then after next slide is my next question slide. Is there any way to run any macro only once? Like if i click on option correct then the Macro automatically get disabled for that particular question?

[@saffrontequila5783]

Thanks! Very informative :) How do we make it so that you can have unlimited attempts for each question? Thanks!

[@PPTVBA]

Yes, we can remove the message box and the gotonextslide line in the code of the wrong answer.
