A Problem Sheet provides problem(s) for the participants to practice with. Once you've created and saved a Problem Sheet, or selected one, you can then select Edit or next to the item you wish to edit. Select Save to keep the changes, select Cancel to return the sheet.

For each tab (heading), you can add as many Text, Resource (Resources tab), Resource (Directions tab), or Test Items as you need. Not all areas of a sheet allow for all types of entries. If you leave a tab empty by not adding any entries, then that tab will not output on the Problem Sheet. On this screen, you can:

•Select Edit to make changes to the General tab information. Make the desired changes then select Save to keep the changes or select Cancel to return to view the sheet.

•Select Explain Flag to review the reasons a resource has been flagged.

•View or download a Resource entry, if a link is shown and you have the correct software available.

•Add or Edit a selected Text, Note, Caution, Warning, or Test Item entry.

•Add a Resource entry and Edit a selected resource on the Resources tab.

•Add a Resource entry and Edit a selected resource on the Directions tab.

•Convert a Text entry to a Note, Caution, Warning entry, if needed.

•Delete a selected Text, Note, Caution, Warning, Resource, or Test Item entry. Once you've selected OK to the confirmation message, an Undo button displays on the bottom left of the screen that allows you to revert the deletion.

•Copy /Paste a selected Text, Note, Caution, Warning, Resource, or Test Item entry.

•Move a selected Text, Note, Caution, Warning, Resource, or Test Item entry Up or Down in the list of entries to resequence the list of entries.
