Piping the response not selected into another form

[Shreenidhi Sharma]

Hi there, 

I have two forms (form A and form B) and I was wondering if there was an easy way to pipe the answers not selected from form A into form B. For an example if form A question 1, is a yes or no and the participant selects "yes" then the response that gets piped into form B would be "no". 

Thanks in advance for your help!!

Hi there,

Considering your Yes/No example, there is an easy solution using action tags in the form-B variable you would like to have the answered piped to. [var1] would be in form A and [var2] would be in form B. I am assuming Yes=1 and No=0.

@IF([var1] = '1', @DEFAULT = '0', @DEFAULT = '1')

If you would like to account for the possibility that [var1] could be empty (recommended), use the following:

@IF([var1]='', @DEFAULT='',@IF([var1]='1', @DEFAULT='0', @DEFAULT = '1'))

This would get trickier to set if your variables have more than 2 possible answers. If that's the case, I would consider reframing the question of [var2] to accept the same answered provided in [var1] and a simple piping would work.

Hope this helps!

Hello Shreenidhi,

 

If your questions on Form A are yes/no, then you could set up a counterpart for each on Form B with the values/labels reversed, then set the value using @SETVALUE and pipe from there.

 

E.g.

 

Form A

               var_x 1=Yes; 0=No

               var_y 1=Yes; 0=No

               var_z 1=Yes; 0=No

 

Form B

               var_x_neg 0=Yes; 1=No @SETVALUE=’[var_x:value]’

               var_y_neg 0=Yes; 1=No @SETVALUE=’[var_y:value]’

               var_z_neg 0=Yes; 1=No @SETVALUE=’[var_z:value]’

              

Not selected on Form A:

var_x: [var_x_neg]

var_y: [var_y_neg]

var_z: [var_z_neg]
