Dear Alan,
thanks very much for giving us look at your fascinating "Discover the Word" and "Memory Game" activities. I am sure it will be possible to get the results of those stored in Moodle one day, using the HotPot module.

Your vb6.exe script sounds ingeneous too. A useful addition to the tool kit of busy teachers.

One point I might make though, is that we should perhaps be careful of going to far down the path of making tools which create or modify the Hot Potatoes XML, because that software might then threaten the development of the original Hot Potatoes software which Martin H. and Stewart A. If there was no need to download Hot Potatoes, then people wouldn't and then license funds would not go back to continue the development of the software.

As far as "technical insight" goes though, I think you have shown you have considerable quantities of that! Congratulations!

regards
Gordon
