I have programmed a format.php to import multichoice questions of any type from a simple flat list created in excel. You can save this list as xls and import it in a quiz. Maybe this is usefull to someone?
Could be!
This should really be in the quiz forum. Please attach your format.php and some example data.
Can you also say what motivated you to develop this. Why is it better/different to something like the GIFT format?

Because anyone can fill in some cells in Excel. How many people are familar with GIFT? I have to clean up some code to make it look nice. I will post it ASAP with an example.
Hi Rudi,
Please keep me updated whee I can find your solution - I am not very familiar with GIFT - but Excel I know and would love to be able back-uping and exporting quizzes easily.
Thank you very much,
Stephan

Excellent I look forward to seeing it.
Sounds interesting!
I hope that Rudi Donne posts an excel import format sometime.

I am not familiar with the gift format for to import the questions into quiz. I will be glad to use your excel format.
Waiting for the code and example of yours.
Thanks,

Would love such a tool

I would love such a tool too! Can't wait till it is finished!
Any thought towards creating an export to the ODC (Open Document XML file format) an open standard for spreadsheets? We probably should consider Moodle export options beyond doc and xls. Just a thought..
I would find your script very useful!
I've been working on forms to allow students to create their own test questions. The form data is delivered in Excel so I had been trying to work out a GIFT converter script...
The T/F form is here:
http://jotform.com/form/6524117422
I created a multiple choice form here:
http://jotform.com/form/6653145422
I can give the form code to anyone interested, ultimately I would like to have something similar integrated into Moodle as a module.
Here are some screencasts on why students should be creating their own questions and how it could be done...

Hi Dennis,
Yes, I would be interested in this form code - we have secondary schools in the Caribbean taking our coral reef course for free - and wanting to add questions to the quizz.
I suppose your form code also sends the entered info to an Excel document - or how does it work?
Why do you show us two similar - yet different forms?
I guess I will give all to my web developer who should be able to better understand what to do with it and how to make it work...
Thank you very much!

Actually, right click, get source... and you'll have it all...
What an interesting idea for the use of a form, thanks.
Do you use simple text in your questions or all the possibilities in text formatting of a cell in excel ( font ,size , color, list , etc including HTML)?
I have recently debug the import webct/format.php for the various question types in webct including multichoice. the webct fromat is a flat .txt file.
see http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=41743
Multichoice question examples in your excel sheet format will be appreciated.

Hi, I have a question about this and perhaps you can help me:
I wish use Moodle for the Spanish driving schools. I have a lot of tests written in HTML, and the students can check online their errors clicking a button (via Javascript), Here is a example:
http://autoescuela.fox-terrier.es/test/test.htm
Well,my question is: Can I use that tests and get the reports on the style of the Quiz module of Moodle, or can I adapt that tests to anything compatible with the Quiz? Thank you very much
And where is the excell script??
Dear Daniel Quesada
As things stand you would need to convert your tests into one of the moodle importable formats. Do you only have them in html? Did you write them in html? If you have a script for the test before they were converted to html that would probably be easier to convert to a Moodle format than the html pages themselves.

Thanks Timothy for your answer, but I make the tests in HTML (via Dreamweaver), but if you know how help me, please suggest me what to do, because I don´t know what to do
Thanks
