Re: getvaluelabel

Greg is out this week so let me respond. I haven't used the codes and labels feature, but it should be working. In the interim, you can do this, which is working for me: function string GetCheckboxLabel() string labels; do numeric ctr = 1 while ctr <= length ( strip (I1MULTI)) // I1MULTI_VS1.codes.l...

Re: Consequences of the Len value modification in a dictionnary while using the data entry application

>Will it be possible to modify the Len value for an item in the dictionnary while collecting data through the data entry application?

Re: APK Download Link

The post you are responding to is over 2.5 years old and is referring to an older version of CSEntry. Is there a reason you can not use the current version (7.7.3) that can be downloaded for free from PlayStore?

Re: Error: unable to read response from server. See log file for details

This post was also submitted to cspro@lists.census.gov where it was handled. Several data files had become corrupted on their server which was preventing the synchronization from working properly.

Re: how to display the field note with csdb

Oh, I thought you wanted to display notes on the go/within the current case ("I need to display the notes simultaneously on the supervisor's listings from file csdb"). But it looks like you're looping thru all cases in a file and writing any notes found to an html file. So what exactly are...

Re: how to display the field note with csdb

First, are you confident there is a note in your data file for the dictionary element in question? For example, if you open your csdb file in DataViewer, do you see a yellow box next to the field of interest? Second, are you making a proper reference to it, particularly if it is a repeating field, t...

Re: How to randomly select respondents for other sections

One would be to create a list of persons from your household as the household is being constructed using CSPro's list feature: https://www.csprousers.org/help/CSPro/list.html Then use the random function with the upper bound being equal to the number of peopl...

Re: Auto mathematical calculations using numeric items

In addition to blocks you can also just save the value to a local variable on entry, then write it back to the cell on exit.

But since B19 is being calculated, you also have the option of just repeating the calculation on exit.
