Hi Jean-François This is what is needed: If you want the ID is generated automatically Considers that your variables are string type Q01 Région <A > Q02 Village <A > Q03 Household <A > Q04 Member <A > ID Identifiant <A > in the chikfile Paste: Q01 RANGE 1 10 LEGAL 2 3 4 5 END MUSTENTER END
Q02 RANGE 1 30 LEGAL 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 END MUSTENTER END
Q03 RANGE 1 10 LEGAL 2 3 5 6 END MUSTENTER END
Q04 RANGE 1 7 LEGAL 2 3 4 5 6 7 END MUSTENTER AFTER ENTRY LET ID=Q01+Q02+Q03+Q04 END END

Dear all,
I would have a question about the creation of an identifier for data entry. I would like the identifier to be automatically created in the .rec file after entering 4 variables and as an aggregation of these 4 variables. For instance my identifier is ID=region number+village number+household number+member in the household number Do you have any clue about how to do this? Thank you for your help. Jean-Francois
