  1. Double-click the graphic of the question you want to change in the Title Explorer. Alternatively, you can right-click the graphic of the question and click Properties. The Properties ribbon is displayed.

  2. Specify the associated variable name in the Variable field. This name must be unique to all existing variable names. Variable names cannot contain spaces or special characters. The variable will be used to store the user’s answer to the question. It can be accessed from anywhere in the title.

    It is best to keep the default naming convention (Question_####) for question variables. the program will automatically increment the numeric value in the variable name to correspond with the number of questions that have been created within the title.
