Yeppers... use eq instead of =.
= is for numbers, eq is for string comparison.

Subject: FLASH: controlling randomized movie sets


Hi all. We've set up a file containing a set of 36 quiz questions. We
have randomized the questions so that each time the student takes the
quiz, they get a different set of 8 questions. We've tried to detect
previously chosen question using the script below:

Set Variable: "quest1" = "part1/a" & random(36) & ".swf"
If ("quest0" = "quest1")
Set Variable: "quest1" = "part1/a" & random(36) & ".swf"
End If

trying to test if the name of movie in variable quest0 is the same as
the name of the movie in variable quest1, and to re-run the script in
that case, (new tests (quest1 = quest2, etc.) are added for subsequent
variables). Trouble is, we get duplicate copies of some questions each
time, so the eval is not working properly. Anyone have a better way?

TIA!
