Retrieve text from open-ended question was created by LucianoMoreira
Dear all,


I am doing a survey and I'd like to have five open-ended questions (short-answer type). So far so good.
But then I would like the participants to rate (from the most important to the least important) the very same answers they gave before. is there any way to load the data string data given by the participants before?

Thank you so much in advance.

Luciano Moreira

yes, you can access any question via Expression manager and pipe it into some later part of the survey.

Let's assume the question code one of the open ended questions is "open1", then you should be able to pipe the answer given to this question into the question text of another question (or into the answer option / subquestion of another question) via this code:
Code:
{open1.NAOK}

or maybe just
Code:
{open1}

Thank you. Actually, when I was trying your hint, I found the Placehoulder fields and I was able to pipe the previous answers which is pretty helpful. Cheers.
