I am attempting to import quiz questions from WebCT Vista 3.0 into Moodle 1.9.
WebCT gives me a zip file with a series of xsd and xml files but the WebCT filter, Blackboard and Blackboard V6+ import mechanisms fail.
Is there a way to export these in WebCT so that Moodle can read them or any other way to import these questions?
Any help is appreciated.

Can you post an example please 
I've been examining the structure of this quiz and it appears that the individual questions are xml files in the X-WEBCT-VISTA-V0 folder which have filenames of the form somerandomstring_R.xml .
The question text and responses are in a section like this:

It should be relatively simple to import this into a multiple choice question, but regenerating the quiz might require multiple passes. <flow>
