Hi,

I think group is not really a variable. It  is an attribute. You will need
getattrib function. The following script probably is what you need.

if c.GetAttrib("group") = 1 then
   List1.SetAttrib 1, "corrAns", "w"
   List1.SetAttrib 2, "corrAns", "q"
else
   List1.SetAttrib 1, "corrAns", "q"
   List1.SetAttrib 2, "corrAns", "w"
end if

Best,

Shin-Yi


   List1.SetAttrib 1 "corrAns")yes = "q" and no = "w"
> if group = 2 then yes = "w" and no = "q"
