Export names and labels

[pierrew]

Hey Greg,
Can you make an improvement to CSexport to allow the user to export the dictionary names and/or labels. Often times the names are the question numbers and we often have to refer to the questionnaire to link the labels of the names. It will be useful to have both as an identifier or the option of including one or the other.

Thanks,
Pierre

This feature is already there - the mysterious "undocumented macros":

Right click on very top of the dictionary tree when opened in CSPro (The name of the dictionary), and choose "Dictionary macros". Here you get a menu where you can select to copy names and labels and value sets etc..

It's great, and I have no idea why they keep it "secret"..

Thanks Anne,
That is cool - I guess that I can just use a vlookup in excel to convert the column names into labels. Do you know of a way to export data files from CSPro to tab delimited files showing the labels as the column headers instead of the data item names?
