Inserting a Table Element
Add a Table Element
- Select Edit|Insert.
- Select the element type Table or from the Toolbar.
- Enter Table Categories into the Categories box.
- Enter the Number of elements in table. The table example includes 6 elements (4 questions plus 2 skip instructions). Remember to include all elements (i.e., not just Data Elements) in your count. You can change this number at any time.
- Designate whether each element represents a row or column of the Table. This setting determines how the Table will be printed for paper forms. Default is one element per row.
- Choose the appropriate button from the Automated Interviews box. This setting determines whether elements will be processed by: (a) completing the top row first; or (b) completing the left column first. Default is the Column-first setting.
- Click OK.
Tip: The settings for the One element per and Automated Interviews options will determine whether all elements for each Category will be processed before moving to the next Category, or if a single element will be processed for all categories before moving to the next element.
