Hi:
  In response to Rosie's query, at Univ. of Sask. we use OMR scanning for
scoring exams via an in-house developed program.  In fact, we have a three
part system which allows users to:
1) generate computer marked exams from item banks
2) score the exam sheets and produce standard reports (item analysis and
	student reports).  The results can also be loaded back into the
	item bank, to maintain a history on the performance of each item.
3) load exam results into a program to maintain history of student results
	over the year.  Marks from papers, labs, etc. can also be loaded
	(manually).  At year-end, instructor can combine scores to get final.

The second part of our system, that scores the OMR sheets, is written in
Fortran.  It produces two ascii files: one containing item information;
the other contains student information. As well as the two types of reports
mentioned above, it can also generate a one-page report for each student,
indicating the student's reponse to each question and correct answers.

I support this system, and can provide more information.
