How do I make the text of shape1 appear on shape2 by click on shap

[Preschool Mike]

I am trying to make a quiz (game) for my preschool class. What I’m trying to
accomplish is when presented with a word like “cat†they must click on the
appropriate letters to spell the word. On the slide the word “cat†would be
presented and then they must click on the correct letters to spell the word –
click on “c†and “c†would appear in shape2, click on “a†and “a†would
appear in shape3 and so on. I also want to account for misspelled (incorrect
clicks) – if they click on “b†instead of “c†the “b†would appear in shape2.
Lastly I want the answers to appear on a printable page. I know how to set
up the printable page, but not sure how to do it so they answers appear as to
how I want the quiz to operate. I know how to accomplish this using the
InputBox procedure but since their typing skills aren’t they best I wanted to
do it by them selecting the correct letters. Is this possible? If so how? Or
is there a better way to accomplish this task. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

http://www.echosvoice.com/triggers.htm has a pretty straightforward
explanation.

Triggers would work well for a small number of choices and no printable
page or grading. However, as the choices grow, the complexity of the
triggers grows. Additionally, It would be hard to get it all right where
the first click puts something in the first box, and the second click
puts something in the second box. I think this has to be done with VBA.
Fortunately, the OP is already using VBA.

I forgot about the printable page part in my earlier answer. That part
could be done in a number of ways, including some variation of the
multiple choice quizzes with printable pages on my site:

I think that Example 7.9 is a good starting place. Example 8.11 might be
even better. They both include a printable page with short-answer and
multiple-choice questions.

Yeah, I didn't read closely enough and realize he was asking about VBA.

And you're right -- this could get real complicated real fast!
