Using Javascript to punch into another question

Question

Hello
This is probably a very basic question, but I've been trying for ages and can't get it to work.  I'm trying to copy the answers from Multi question QID73 into duplicate question QID76 (where this javascript is stored), but it's not working.  It does seem to work if I select one answer, which leads me to think I need to use different syntax for a multi question?  I've tried it without the variable, and without the loop, but nothing works.  Any suggestions?

var valQ10 = "parseInt(${q://QID73/SelectedChoicesRecode})";
			
		for (var i = 1; i <= 12; i++) 
				{
			
				if (valQ10==i)
				{			this.setChoiceValueByRecodeValue(i,true);	 }

}

Thanks!

Thanks for the tip.  I've done it like this, which seems to work.   :)  var valQ10 = "${q://QID73/SelectedChoicesRecode}"; var arrQ10 = new Array();arrQ10 = valQ10.split(",")for(var i=0;i<arrQ10.length;i++){          for (var j = 1; j <= 12; j++){                  if (arrQ10==j)                         {           this.setChoiceValueByRecodeValue(j,true);    }                 }    }

You first need to split the choices into an array, then loop through them converting them to into integers and setting the values.
