Are you using Schoolhouse Bingo? If so, you can export word lists from Vocabulary Worksheet Factory and import them to Schoolhouse Bingo to create custom bingo activity cards. (Look for these same steps but with pictures in the Schoolhouse Bingo program Help - Contents, Customizing Layout and Content.)

1. Export the word lists you want from Vocabulary Worksheet Factory (see the help in the Vocabulary program for details of how to export). Ensure you export the word lists to a location on your computer that you can find easily.

2. With a bingo activity open in edit mode, or a Custom bingo activity open, access the Content Editor window by clicking on the Edit Content button.

3. When the Content Editor window appears, click on Import. An Open window appears. Locate your exported word lists and select a word list to import. Click Open.

4. The word list data is automatically inserted into the Question and Answer cells.

5. More than one word list can be used for a bingo activity. Continue to use the Import command until you have imported all of the word lists you want for the bingo activity.

6. Finally, click OK to add the data to the bingo cards and call sheets.

NOTE: The data entered is only saved when the bingo activity cards and call sheets are saved. If you want to create other bingo activities with this data in the future, you must save the bingo cards and call sheets.
