==================
Hi,

I created a survey to request names by different departments. It's just 5 questions long and I think two of them are the important.
As our largest department has 45 employes, I created a matrix question with maximum 45 fields. On top of it I created a field asking how many names will be inserted to redurce the fields depending on the given number.

In my test I entered 16 as number and inserted 16 names (other tests larger 10 for the fields deliver the same result). In the admin area I see the send answer but fields from 3-10 are missing. Not moved somethere else, just not in the answers. As the survey should be closed, we will send auth-codes and these are single use. So the users are not able to check the submitted form again.

I exported the created survey and attached it here. Does someone have a idea, why this happens?

Thanks

René

Remove the quotes from the numeric values in your sub-question relevance. You should be comparing to numbers, not strings.

 

 

Thanks. This fixed it. It the conditional field is used as text, are the quotes in the sub-section relevance needed?

If you check if the answer equals a certain string / text, then yes, the " are needed.

To add an explanation:
If you use quotes you cOmpare strings, not numbers
And strings are ordered in alphabetical order as in the phone book, while numbers in numerical order.
So instead of the numerical order
1,2,3,4,...,9,10,11,12,...,18,19,20,21,22,...,29,30,31,32
you get the alphabetical order
"1","10","11","12",...,"19","2","20","21",...,"28","29","3","30","31","32";"4","5","6","7","8","9"
You see: "2" is greater than "16"
