Gufran,

If you use a digits question and customize the prompt you can do what you want. Make the prompt for that question a parameter, and simply pass us the text of the question you want to use.

What you will get back is the digits they entered. You will have to know what digits corresponds to which Dr. You can do that with pass-through. For example:

For Dr. Smith, please press 1. For Dr. Williams please press 2.
....

1|DrSmith||2|DrWilliams

When you pass the NetGet back with their answer, you can parse the values in the pass_through and know which Dr. was chosen, or if the answer was invalid.
