Character Count Quizmaker 09

[Chris-ils]

Does anyone know what the character count is for Quizmaker 09 answers. My program keeps crashing somewhere around the 1500 character mark but I'm not sure about the exact number.

If I knew the exact amount I could stop crashing by doing a quick count in Microsoft Word before pasting the text and avoid the problem entirely.

With the older version of Quizmaker the text box would simply cut off the extra text but in 09 the program completely crashes on me.

Could some one let me know what the exact number of characters are that can be successfully used.

Thanks

Does this issue occur in the answer field specifically or the feedback field? Can you provide specific steps for duplication?

Good morning Justin,
Sorry I should of provided more info in my earlier request.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Graded Question > True/False
2. Paste the question in the "ENTER THE QUESTION:" box from script (Microsoft Word 2007)
3. Import sound - mp3 for the question
4. Change the True and False titles and pick the correct answer
5. Import mp3 = 948 KB (crash happens whether this is used or not) for answer
6. Paste the answer in the "CORRECT" field box

as soon as I paste the answer I receive the following error message.

"Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately.

Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.

This is the only Question that this happens to (1764 Characters). None of the other answers are this long, when I knock off the last paragraph I'm down to 1313 Characters

Software in use:
Quizmaker 09
Word 2007
Windows Vista Ultimate


If you could shed some lite on this I would appreciate it.

Cheers
Chris
