Creating quizzes with Hot Potatoes

Hot potatoes is really an useful software for creating cloze passage, matching and sequencing for the quizzes or exercises. It is easy to handle and quite interactive. I like the cloze passage most because hints can be given to students so that at least they can try to do it on their own. We can create some practice drilling exercises for students to do at their home on their own because they can check the answers immediately. This will save a lot of marking time. It is most useful for some initiative students who do the exercises careful.However, we cannot control the process. They may do the exercises by random. I just wonder how we can check how they perform in the exercises so that we can monitor the students to do them carefully. Otherwise, it will be a waste of time for creating exercises like that.
On the other hand, if we create quizzes with Hot Potatoes, how should we save the results of the students? Are there any functions of checking the students' first result? Maybe they will remember the answers given by the computer and do it again. Can they?
