Dear list, I have two questions regarding Jumps in EpiData Entry. 1) I want to jump to variable v10 if de score for v8 is 1 to 7. Of course this works: v8 RANGE 1 9 COMMENT LEGAL USE oplcat JUMPS 1 v10 2 v10 3 v10 4 v10 5 v10 6 v10 7 v10 END MUSTENTER END Is a shorter syntax possible and if so, how? 2) Is it possible to make a jump defination that depends on the value entered in a previous question? For example: After entering the value for variable v5 I want to jump to v8 if the answer on question v3=1. Kind Regards, Pieter van Groenestijn The Netherlands

My English is bad and I apologize for that. My research instrument contains 21 questions to be answered for 12 disciplines in a course. The number of respondents is approximately 100 people. Each question will be answered for all disciplines. I am attaching an example with three questions (one question for each file.) When finished entering the data of 12 disciplines in question 3, I want go to the file Quest which is the first issue, data entry of a new student. Note that I used the RELATE command in questions 1 and 2. FQ2 AFTER ENTRY IF fq2=1 THEN RELATE QUEST q3 ENDIF END END -------------------------------------- Silvano Cesar da Costa Departamento de Estatística Universidade Estadual de Londrina Fone: 3371-4346 -------------------------------------- ----- Original Message ----- From: <epidata-list-request(a)lists.umanitoba.ca> To: <epidata-list(a)lists.umanitoba.ca> Sent: Thursday, April 21, 2011 2:00 PM Subject: EpiData-list Digest, Vol 90, Issue 2 > Send EpiData-list mailing list submissions to > epidata-list(a)lists.umanitoba.ca > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://lists.umanitoba.ca/mailman/listinfo/epidata-list > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' > to > epidata-list-request(a)lists.umanitoba.ca > > You can reach the person managing the list at > epidata-list-owner(a)lists.umanitoba.ca > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more > specific > than "Re: Contents of EpiData-list digest..." > > > EpiData-list mailing list > ___________________________________ > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

Dear Silvano Cesar da Costa, One reliable way to approach this is to close the files in reverse order until the edit pencil is pointed to the start(in your case may be file 1). *As general rule*: To enter data in relational database you must either move down the tree through the field that contains the Relate command, or move up the tree by closing the rec.files. On closing file21.rec the cursor should go back to file20.rec so on. Pressing F10 or CTRL+R ( return key) closes the file and moves the cursor/edit pencil back one level to the data files that called RELATE. Hope this would help.

Hi, I have a main file (Quest) and 21 related files. At the end of the input data file 21 that want to go back to the file Quest for new entry. How? I tried: FQ21 AFTER ENTRY IF FQ21=1 THEN GOTO WRITE ENDIF END END and FQ21 AFTER ENTRY IF FQ21=1 THEN GOTO QUEST ENDIF END END -------------------------------------- Silvano Cesar da Costa Departamento de Estatística Universidade Estadual de Londrina Fone: 3371-4346 --------------------------------------
