Hi professorplumb Welcome to the Canvas Community.
It is a challenge moving from one LMS to another, there will be things you will miss and hopefully things you find are better. It takes time, and you have done the number 1 best thing by joining the Community. So many people here to share ideas, problem solve with, or have a laugh or a grumble with.
Back to your question.
I'm not to sure if you are a student or instructor but will take a guess that you are an instructor. If I've got that wrong please let me know.
I found these discussions that might be of assistance to you:
Random questions from pools/banks
Quizzes with multiple attempts where questions are randomly selected from question bank
and a guide:
How do I create a quiz by finding questions in a question bank?
And a quick google came up with this:
To upload questions into Canvas follow the steps below.

I'm not sure what you mean by T/Q format sorry.
