Thanks Bobby - I've corrected the link on the resources page to link to the scribd page.
List members may also be interested in a new white paper from the SQA's SOLAR project, available at http://www.sqa.org.uk/sqa/files_ccc/SOLARWhitePaperMay2008.pdf (thanks to Hawa at BTL for alerting me to it).
Best wishes,
Rowin

Thanks Rowan. I should have pointed out that the guide is useful for
constructing selected response items for traditional or online delivery
since a good question is a good question.
I should also have added that the guide is maintained at the following URL,
from where the latest version can always be downloaded:
