I have tried several ways to get a published Producer 2003 program into
Blackboard, but with no success. Has anyone ever tried this. Did it succeed
and how did you get it to run?

Producer will generate a SCORM 1.2 package (there are some niggling
compliance issues though). All that generally needs to be done is to zip up
the files et produced and present it to the LMS using whatever strategy it
has for creating SCOs.

Does your Blackboard support SCORM 1.2 and is the support enabled? (I am
pretty sure all recent versions do but I am not sure of the
implementation). Do other SCORM 1.2 packages work?

You say "no success". Can you be more explicit -- what did you do, what
happened, messages ...?

I am not familiar with the SCORM, but to the best of my knowledge SCORM is
enabled. I did zip the file and uploaded it. I do regular powerpoints and
do not have a problem. If you are familiar with Blackboard you get a receipt
that says it took it sucessfully, but nothing shows up.

I am not familiar with Blackboard's lesson upload feature.

Those would not be SCORM packages unless some tool was used to create such
a package so I don't know what this implies.

I suggest you speak to your LMS administrator or you might get more insight
from a Blackboard specific forum as I suspect this is an LMS issue, not a
Producer one.
