password protect exam

I have a customer that requires a proctored exam upon completion of the course. I would like the proctor to be able to enter a password on the first page of the exam so that I know he was present from the beginning of the exam. How can I do that so I don't have to publish a new scorm pacakge everytime someone wants to take the course?

1. Add a text entry box on the slide. Check its properties, set "Password" checkbox to make sure the entered password is masked. The entered value will be stored in Entry_0001 or a similar variable (again, check the box properties).


2. Add a conditional action on a "Begin exam" button: On Click -> Go to next page -> IF Entry_0001 equals "Pass1234" (obviously, you can choose your own password there).


Voila. Without the password, users cannot navigate to the next page, so they need their supervisor to enter it.
