Hi,

I have a question about the jumps reset command.

What I would like to do is based on the answers of 2 items in the questionnaire I would like to either keep entering data or fill the

rest

of the section with 7's.

I know how to use one item jumps reset, but not how to do it for 2 items. I was thinking about creating a sum of the items and then if

the

sum equals a particular value either you keep going or fill. The two items added together would have a range of 2-6 and when it's 2 I would like to skip (fill) the section. However, my usage of EpiData up until now has been rather basic, so the programming for this is a little beyond me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers, Bellinda

Hi Bellinda,

another way to do more complex skip and fill rules is using If ... then in a After Entry-Block for Item2, something like this:

If (item1>1) and (item2>1) THEN var1=7 var2=7 var3=-7 var4=0 ... GOTO nextvar Endif

That's more programming than "jumps reset" but much more flexible.

Regards
