Hi, first of all thank you for LimeSurvey, it is fantastic.

My problem:
I have an array question (D01), with subquestions and text answers, and I want to use the answers with the expression manager.

My answers (the array headings) from left to right are 'AA', 'BB', 'CC', 'DD'.
It looks something like this:

	AA	BB	CC	DD
Ques 1			X
Ques 2		X

I want to get the value of the answers.
For subquestion 1, I don't want to get 'CC', I want to get 2. (0 being AA, 1 being BB, 2 being C... etc)
And for subquestion 2, I want to get 1.

Is this possible, without using the assessment functionality?
Basically, I just want to get the x-value/position of each subquestion's answer.

Using this does not work for me, I always get a value of 0.
{sum(D01_SQ001.value, D01_SQ002.value)}
I think this .value requires the assesment values to be set up.

Thank you.

Hi,
well, you show us the answer labels "AA", "BB", ...
But what did you set as answer option codes?
Here you set 0, 1, 2, 3,...





Or do I misunderstand?

Joffm - thank you!

Yes, now if I set the answer codes like 0, 1, 2, 3 (before it was the default A1...)
and when I use this, I get the result I am looking for!
{sum(D01_SQ001, D01_SQ002)}

Thanks again.
