Bob,

The syntax is described in the LON-CAPA Script Functions help item:
e.g.,
http://loncapa.chem.binghamton.edu/adm/help/Problem_LON-CAPA_Functions.hlp

To access a student's submissions in a different problem you need to supply a sixth argument -- a maplias, and the call is:

&submission($partid,$responseid,$version,$encode,$cleanupnum,$mapalias);

In the case of a published sequence, where you have authoring or co-authoring rights, you can set a mapalias for a particular resource in the sequence using the Advanced Editor in Authoring Space (prior to publication).

If there is no mapalias set you can use the (much longer) unique identifier of the resource instance (known as the "symb"). If you are using a folder added via the Course Editor rather than a published sequence, there is currently no mechanism to set a mapalias for a particular resource instance in the folder (which is actually still a sequence internally in LON-CAPA), so you will have to use the "symb".

You can display a list of "symb"s in a course using:
Course Editor > Content Utilities >  List Resource Identifiers
(the "symb"s are in the "Identifier" column).

Quoting Bob Gonzales <rgon...@binghamton.edu>:

Hi,

The release notes for 2.11.1 say this about &submission():

&submission() in one problem can access submissions by the same student
    in a different problem.

Does this mean any problems in a course that the student has access to or
do the problems still have to be in a sequence?

If a sequence is not required then what would be the the syntax of the call?

Thanks,
