Is there a way to create a Global Variable in Captivate that will allow me to pass information from one project to another and track the work done in one project and then add it to the second, third, etc., using the variable as a progressive scoring tool?

Can you please give some feedback. Was the explanation I gave sufficient? Will this solve your problems?

You seem to confuse a typical programming word ‘Global variable’ with what you want to do, exchanging values of variables between projects. The real goal can best be reached by using a LMS and have it take care of progresses over the courses. You could use Local storage to save variable values in one project and retrieve then in another project. However that will only be functional when the learner always accesses the course from the same system which is rather improbable. Local storage can be reached with JS or with the wonderful CpExtra widget from InfoSemantics.
