Re: DATA UPLOAD TO SERVER SYSTEM IN CAPI

One solution that one major organization uses is to add Dropbox to the computers where data is collected. Then the CSPro data files are created in the Dropbox folder. Then when you have Internet access, the data is synched to the main office. This is an easy and creative solution that avoids the nee...

Re: Open two application from third application

As long as the programs aren't sharing the same data files, you can open up multiple instances of CSEntry. You can use either the execsystem or the execpff functions to open your applications.

Re: Dynamical use of setvaluesets

I suspect that the problem has to do with the spaces that probably exist to the right of the characters in your VAR1020 string. Try this instead:
setvaluesets(strip(VAR1020));

Re: Tabulating items with multiple value sets

This behavior is intentional. After all, the 1 in your data file isn't associated with any value set, it's simple associated with your item. Value sets primarily allow CSPro to: 1) Restrict entered values in CSEntry. 2) Know what values to display in tables. Value sets are optional, and the 1 is not...

Re: No cases without tabular data

Can you describe your question in more detail? Are you working with the Tabulate Frequencies tool, or are you creating tables in CSPro?

Re: extract a text

If the field is numeric your condition can be:
VAL % 100 = 50
If the field is alpha:
VAL[5:2] = "50"

Re: error message when opening .exf file

Anne, Did Savy answer your question about the IDs over email? In any case, I would suggest that you do this task using a batch application instead of an export application. We added a function setoutput in the most recent version, which you can use to change the output of your batch application. Tha...

Re: Separate Input Data file from associate files

Arshad is correct. There are several files that get created along with your data file (an index file, a notes file, etc.), and these will always get created in the same folder as your data file. We always suggest that people use an extension (like .dat) for the data files so that it is easy to diffe...

Re: Reading Unicode

Did you check the "Unicode output" option under Additional Options in the export tool? The default is to output the data in ANSI, but you can export the data in UTF-8, which later versions of SPSS can read.
