Aiai - When I first got started with Moodle, I did a fair amount of database manipulation and since that is my background I am still occasionally tempted to monkey with the database directly; however, I find myself increasingly hesitant to do so as I realize that it is too easy to forget to do something or to make mistakes. So I would not recommend directly adding things to the database. That being said, you may want to take a look at the mdl_course_modules table and see if adding records there for your newly created quiz will help. You will need to know the quiz module id (from mdl_modules) and the instance id from mdl_quiz and the section id from mdl_course_sections. As you see, it gets a little complex and then you may also end up dealing with mdl_role_assignments and perhaps other things that I may have overlooked. I hope this is helpful. Peace - Anthony
