Hi,
IMO you should use EM.
EM is more flexible and powerful than this "old" assessment stuff.

Thank you for your reply,
can you please help, how to give a predefined value to other specify answer option using EM

Hi,
as you see in the answer table after activating your prototype and entering some data, "other" is stored as "-oth-"; the text is stored in the next column.

So you might say (assuming you have numerical codes)

{if(Q0 != '-oth-', Q0, 99)} meaning, IF the answer was NOT "-oth-" store the answer code else store "99".

This way you may calculate your assessment values or whatever in a question of type equation.
