Create an online test that automatically returns results to user

Is there anyway to create an online multiple choice test in Front Page 2002
that will automatically check answers and return the results to the testee
immediately?

Not easily. You would have to make the text an HTML form, then configure it
to save results to a database and display a custom confirmation page, then
modify the confirmation page to run a page that contains a database query,
then code fancy SQL statement that scored the test.

In other words, it would probably be more work and more difficult to build
this out of FrontPage components than to build it from scratch in ASP.NET or
ASP.

Not natively. There may be some tools that would create a set of pages to do that. Try
Google. The first thing that comes to my mind is some ASP scripting and a database, if
your host supports that.
