Sure. Several ideas.1. If you are running from an LMS, then it should provide that capability. 2. If you are running from HTML, there is a solution already published for this. I don't think there is a solution for an executable but I could be wrong here.SOLUTION: Put an action at the title level to save the current page web address:On: Show; Action: Modify Variable; Target: your_variable; Value: JavaScript: location.href. Make the your_variable retained between sessions. Exclude it from the first page (otherwise it gets reset immediately upon opening the course).Add a button on the first page to allow the user to go to where they left off.On: Click; Action: GoTo; Target: Web Address; Web Address: var(your_variable)Now some suggestions. First, instead of allowing the person to go back into the course in the same window, open another window to allow them to do that. This keeps the window with the question available and they can get back to it easily. Open the "open book" window slightly smaller that the original window so it is clear that they have two windows.Answers to questions are retained during the course for sure. Not sure to what extent answers to questions are retained if the user leaves and comes back. Best check that with a small course before counting on it big time.cheers, ben
