Re: Help Manual for a specific Question

To learn more about question text, I suggest that you look at the workshop materials, specifically the CAPI Features section:

https://csprousers.org/mobile-workshop/05-capi.html

Note that the workshop materials are a bit old and fills now use ~~ instead of %. For example, where it says:

Re: Issue using function LN, EXP, Power in sql query

SQLite has a variety of functions that you can use in queries: https://www.sqlite.org/lang_mathfunc.html

However, they are not enabled in the current version of CSPro. I will enable them for CSPro 8.1.

For now, you can mark a CSPro function as usable in a SQLite query: https://www.csprousers.org ...

Are you wanting to add help text that is different from the question text? If so, this is a feature that exists:

Re: Excel to Cspro automatique

Regarding approach #1, you could:

1) Create the single CSPro DB file from Excel to CSPro.

2) Create a CSPro batch application that splits this file into multiple output files. For this you can use the setoutput function:

Re: Batch Editing is still useful to clean a Census :?:

I think people generally pick tools that they are familiar with. A lot of people study languages like R or Stata while getting statistics degrees, or Python for data science. If I didn't know CSPro and I knew one of those languages, I would probably edit data using the tool with which I'm familiar ...

Re: A propros du CSWeb

Malheureusement, le Census Bureau ne dispose pas d'un serveur de test CSWeb. Si vous effectuez des tests en local, vous pouvez essayer de configurer WampServer sur votre machine Windows pour effectuer le test:

Re: CSWeb: Cannot delete a dictionary when we have more than 10 dictionaries.

You'll have to have your IT person modify the data.twig file that I've attached. Unzip that file and put the file here: templates/data.twig

Then clear the var/cache directory and it should work.

Re: Missing data while synchronization

Are you saying that you are missing cases, or only certain occurrences on a roster? We have never heard of any instances when occurrences were lost during synchronization. The only things that I can think of that might cause this are:


Multiple people are collecting data for the same case, and ...
