Randomizing script quit working
Help! One of my scripts quite and I'm at a lose to see why. Need some assistance as I can't see the forest from the trees here. I use the script to randomize questions but something (someone) changed it and it no longer functions prpoerly. Can someone eyeball this and help me out? Thanks,
Al
