Excel to CSPro

Post by jorjie_s »

Hi just wanna ask if this is possible, if I had an (e.g. ID Number, Name and Birthday..so on) variables and I don't want my field interviewer to fill it in because sometimes they might input the wrong data, would be possible to have it fill up already and all they do has to choose the right respondent instead of filling it up?

Yes, you could use the errmsg function with the "select" keyword, presenting the list of relevant HH members you wish them to choose from:

However, the select option only allows 5 arguments (in your case, people). If you have more than that, you can use the accept function:

By the way, you posted this question in the Excel to CSPro section; this question would be better placed in the "Entry" section.
