Hey Tony,

I can't make it to work. The placeholder keeps turning up empty. I copyed the string of code down here, I think I copied your code literally.

what's wrong ? can you help ?


heeft zich hulpvaardig (aanspreekbaar en luisterend) opgesteld en/of heeft mij/de cliënt geholpen op een vriendelijke manier en/of doorverwezen. heeft antwoord op mijn vragen en de nodige praktische informatie gegeven. {if (substr(A41, 1, 0)=='V', 'she', if (substr(A41, 1, 0)=='M', 'he', ' '))} heeft het gevraagde werk afgeleverd binnen de afgesproken periode.

Well, I'm confused. Now you're back to one question?

No no, there is still need for the other questions (A42,A43,A44,...) but to save me some time I'm first trying with the one code to see if that works and then build further, but the code with just A41 is already giving error, to be precise it gives nothing.

Oops, sorry, somewhere in the cutting and pasting I got the parameters of the substr function backwards. And since you have conditional questions we should also add ".NAOK" to the Expression Manager variables.

Code:
{if(substr(A41.NAOK, 0, 1) == 'V', 'she', if(substr(A41.NAOK, 0, 1) == 'M', 'he', ''))}
{if(substr(A42.NAOK, 0, 1) == 'V', 'she', if(substr(A42.NAOK, 0, 1) == 'M', 'he', ''))} 
{if(substr(A43.NAOK, 0, 1) == 'V', 'she', if(substr(A43.NAOK, 0, 1) == 'M', 'he', ''))}
{if(substr(A44.NAOK, 0, 1) == 'V', 'she', if(substr(A44.NAOK, 0, 1) == 'M', 'he', ''))}

Thanks Tony,

it works perfect. Just out of interest, what does .NAOK do in the code ?

Hi,
I'm trying without success to use " substr" in a multiple choice question to count easily Tony's boys & girls friends.
Is this possible ?

Thanks...

Note: attached sample "substr/checkboxes" is for the moment also present/inactivate at the demo platform)

I don't think you can get there with Expression Manager because (as far as I know) there is no way to selectively access the checked items sub-question codes.

Hi ,

Usage of that and sub-suffix sq_:
Boys: {count(that.Q1.sq_M)} => count(that.Q1.sq_M)
Girls: {count(that.Q1.sq_F)} => count(that.Q1.sq_F)
Code:
demo.limesurvey.org/index.php?r=admin/questions/sa/editquestion/surveyid/231563/gid/32/qid/172

??? How does that work? Surely you should need the entire sub-question code when using a sub-selector with that.
