What's the difference between
Type ! - List Dropdown Question
AND
Type W - List Flexible Labels Dropdown question type
Both show a dropdown list. Is the only difference that you can use a labelset for type W while for type ! you have to enter all the answers by yourself?
Is there any difference when evaluating this questions types using the statistics?

I've got another question. I just found the following line in the source code (statistics.php, line 1067):
| Code: |
if (substr($rt, 0, 1) == "M" || substr($rt, 0, 1) == "J") //MULTIPLE OPTION, THEREFORE MULTIPLE FIELDS
|
What is question type "J"? |

MAzi, I think you're right with use a labelset for type W while for type ! you have to enter all the answers, but I can't say about the statistics.
But to add to the oddity: I'm sure someone once said all the alphabet was used up for question types. So then, apart from the J that you found lurking, what happened to i, k, and v? Any idea?

Jason, am I right with "Is the only difference that you can use a labelset for type W while for type ! you have to enter all the answers by yourself?"

Jason?!?
Is it really just this small difference or is there something else you have to take care of?
