[MT-L] An attribute that totals and allows edits

[Yannotti, Janis L]

I have an attribute that totals the responses. The problem is that sometimes when the screen is edited the score is not updated properly. Does anyone have a totaling attribute that allows edits to the score. Here is what I use:

 

This attribute is on each query 

FCL1=@.response^/T1

 

This attribute is on the Total query

 IFE=IF{/T1+/T2+/T3+/T4+/T5+/T6+/T7+/T8+/T9+/T10^/VAR,

IFE=/VAR^/[ANS%0,/S.LAST.QUERY]|0,P(R,S,/VAR)^#,""}

 

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks,

FCL attributes are only evaluated when there is a non-nil entry that is different from the prior entry.
This means your total is not updated if a query has an answer deleted.
Also, the cursor has to get to the total query for the total to be computed and saved.
Finally, a user could edit a value and file and you would not re-compute.

I usually add a macro to IFE attributes surrounding all the queries involved in the total, compute the total in the macro and print to the screen by checking /G.MSE.CDS structure to find row and column of the "total" query (and this tells you if it is on the current screen and in need of update) For good measure I recompute and store the total with an REQ attribute just in case the user terminates a field read with F12 and goes right to the file prompt w/o executing another IFE attribute.

Look at the handout, powerpoint and report examples from MUSE presentation 2013 called "Advanced Attributes".
