Hi Cheri,

Thanks for your reply.

I will look into advanced page jumping. As it is, I can see two other workarounds and would appreciate your ideas/help on them:

1) Use simple show/when with an expanded Boolean operator set. For example, elsewhere in the survey, I am showing a question when the answers to a previous question are /1|2|3/   (1 or 2 or 3).  Do you have an expanded symbol set to cover Boolean AND and Boolean NOT that can be used in simple show/when

2) I can convert my multiple selection list into a table of multiple choice questions (with yes/no as the options) and use these answers to control advanced show/when. The tricky part, as I read on another help forum thread, is that each row on a table actually has its own merge code. Can you tell me how to make these merge codes visible?

Thanks again for your help.

James

Dear Cheri,

Thanks again for your help. Can you tell me how I can look at the source code for a survey page?

Dear Cheri,

Thanks for you patience with this thread. I am not quite–but, I think, almost–there.

I have created my table of multiple choice questions. Looking at the source code, I can find the following variables for each row in the question: name, id, title, value (as well as display control variables like align, class, and type). I am still not quite sure how, though, how to use this information to construct proper merge codes for each row. 

My question is structured like the following example (where all row items–A, B, and C–have “Yes” and “No” options)

Question 20. Are the following vegetables?

A. Apples

B. Peas

C. Cauliflower

So, again, I see that question 20 has a merge code similar to [%%24:question…%%] and that “A. Apples” (for example) has name=”Q_50″ but I can't put this information together to form usuable merge codes that I could use to display Question 21 if and only if A=NO AND B=Yes AND C=Yes

In other words, could you please elaborate a bit on the final section of your 5:47 10/17 posting?

Thanks,

James

Dear Cheri,

Unfortunately, the actual question I need to ask has 8 elements, and I would like to branch the survey depending on the specific configuration of yes/no responses to each element. If worst comes to worst, I will break it up into multiple questions (or redo the question entirely). But it really would be ideal if you could show me how to get merge codes for each element in the table of multiple select questions.

Thanks,

James
