A new ToolBook 9 LiveXtension is now available: Product Launch Switch. When you double-click on a .TBK file, should your file open in Assistant or Instructor? If you only have Assistant installed or only have Instructor installed, then there is no doubt about which will open. However if you have both Assistant and Instructor installed, by default the one that is used to open your file is whichever one you most recently installed. This utility will permit you to specify which one should open by default when you double-click your file.

CONDITIONAL SCORE LOGIC: The Score button in ToolBook will provide you with the ability to show the user their current score. For many of you this will be enough to meet your needs. Others will want to go a step further and perform different actions depending on the score.
To do this you will need to use the Actions Editor within ToolBook Instructor to analyze the score, and then set up some conditional behavior to occur based on that score. You will need to be familiar with the Actions Editor in order to implement this type of solution.
