Can anyone help me answer the questions for me:

  1. How might modifying a question's response requirement or validation invalidate the data I have collected in Qualtrics?

  2. How can I add punctuation to responses in the text entry box?

  1. https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/24118/invalidation-of-data-collected-and-punctuationThe data already collected for that question stays the same. Meaning if few haven't answered it will remain empty. But after the collection of data you will have data for all responses.

  2. By punctuation can you elaborate what would you like to do?

Hope it helps!

Thank you, Deepak, by punctuation, I am talking about period (.), comma (,), semi-colon (;), colon (:), dash (-), quotation marks (" "), parentheses, exclamation (!), apostrophe (') and question mark (?).
