Show hidden question value was created by HDrew_
Hi,

I am looking to show the value of a hidden question within a survey. As we have a hidden equation which sets the age of a participant by also setting the value within a hidden question. What I am wanting to do though is then show the value that the hidden question has been set to in another question which is visible to participants.

The equation we are using is "{PROF001=if(PRNT005_SQ001.NAOK =="Y", "A1", if(PRNT005_SQ002.NAOK =="Y", "A2", if(PRNT005_SQ003.NAOK =="Y", "A3", if(PRNT005_SQ004.NAOK =="Y", "A4", if(PRNT005_SQ005.NAOK =="Y", "A5", if(PRNT005_SQ006.NAOK =="Y", "A6", if(PRNT005_SQ007.NAOK =="Y", "A7", if(PRNT005_SQ008.NAOK =="Y", "A8", if(PRNT005_SQ009.NAOK =="Y", "A9", if(PRNT005_SQ010.NAOK =="Y", "A10", if(PRNT005_SQ011.NAOK =="Y", "A11", if(PRNT005_SQ012.NAOK =="Y", "A12", if(PRNT005_SQ013.NAOK =="Y", "A13", if(PRNT005_SQ014.NAOK =="Y", "A14", if(PRNT005_SQ015.NAOK =="Y", "A15", if(PRNT005_SQ016.NAOK =="Y", "A16",""))))))))))))))))}"

PROF001 being the hidden question, PRNT005 being the question where they can select multiple ages. The equation is used to set the answer value to the lowest age selected. We then have another question PROF002 which has "PROF001.shown" within the actual question, however because PROF001 is being hidden so is the value of the answer within question PROF002.

Is there anything I can do so that the PROF001 question is hidden but we are can show the value of the answer in a later question?

Cheers
Harrison

I'm not sure why that wouldn't work as is but you can try hiding PROF001 with a CSS class "hidden" instead of the question setting.
