1

Create a new question in a question bank or a test.

2

Highlight and copy the text (e.g., from your word processor) that you want to paste into a question.

3

Switch to the ExamView Test Generator question entry window.

4

Paste the text into the question.

TIP

Depending on the question type, you may have to copy and paste the question separately
from the answer. However, you can quickly copy/paste multiple choice and multiple
response questions. Using the SmartPaste option, you can automatically copy the choices
into the appropriate places within the question entry window.

To use SmartPaste, highlight an entire multiple choice or multiple response question
including the choices (a. b. c. d. e.) in your word processor and select Copy. Switch to the
question entry window and press F7 (not Ctrl/Cmd+V or Paste).

Importing Questions from CPS Lessons (PC Only)

If you have all or most of your questions in a Classroom Performance System (CPS) database, you can easily import your

A file selection window appears.

Select the lesson and click OK to complete the import.

Importing Questions from a Word Processor (PC Only)

If you have all or most of your questions in a word processor format such as Microsoft Word, you can use ExamView Import
Utility (installed with the other ExamView Assessment Suite programs, for Windows only) to import your questions into
ExamView Test Generator format very quickly. The program includes step-by-step instructions that explain how to import your
questions.
