Thanks, Guy.
I see now that the <drawoptionlist /> is just designed to place the drop
down list somewhere in the question other than at the beginning.
Looks like your answer to my other question about <randomlist> can apply for
what I want to do here as well (I had done a search on <randomlist> instead
of randomlist on the author manual.). I just need to use more than one
<optionresponse> group and surround them by the <randomlist>.
The attached example seems to work. Do you see anything wrong with it?
