Preventing duplicate responses in a column (drop down menus) | XM Community
Skip to main content

Hello,
I'm a little bit stumped by a seemingly simple client request for this question. They are asking for respondents to pick 3 provinces in each column, and they would like it to be programmed so that there cannot be duplicate responses within a given column.
I'm not sure how to program this.
provinces.pngMy suggestion was just that duplicates be cleaned from the data after, but they are insistent on preventing duplicate responses to begin with.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Use JS with event handlers so that when a value is changed in one drop down it is disabled in the other drop downs in that column.


Thanks for the response Tom. I guess this means it is not something easily fixed in Qualtrics UI and requires some coding beyond my capacity. All the best!
