Hello Wayne,

It is possible to import general feedback using the GIFT format. The delimiter is #####

For instance here is an example with a true false question (but you can use it in a multichoice question too)

::Q1:: 42 is the Absolute Answer to everything.{
FALSE#42 is the Ultimate Answer.#You gave the right answer.
####This is, of course, a Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy reference.}

I am using an essay question so my basic code is:

::CAIB1cp1-1-06::
What point in time is used by insurers to measure the amount of the indemnity to be paid by the policy? {}

Where and how, exactly would I add the feedback that states:

Reference pg. 1-6

Indemnity is measured by the value of the insured property as it existed immediately prior to the loss

Hello Monica,

You can try entering one question with the usual Moodle interface in a category by itself. Then export the category in GIFT format and the file in a text editor. This will provide a model for formating other questions.
