Carry forward from matrix table
+1Hi all,
I have a matrix table (bipolar type) with 10 statements, each with 2 scale points and 2 labels. When I carry forward the selected statements into the next question they appear on the screen with the following text between them:
Statement1||QBipolarDelim||Statement2
where Statement1 and Statment2 are my first and second statement respectively.
If anyone has any clues about how to solve this display/formatting issue, that would be great.
Ideally, I was hoping only to carry forward the single selected statement (i.e. as I have 2 scale points the user is forced to pick 1 statement). Is this possible?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Paul

If your Bipolar is:
Left1 | Right1
Left2 | Right2
etc.
Then the choices/statements in your follow-up question would be:
Left1
Right1
Left2
Right2
etc.
They aren't carried forward; you use display logic on each one based on the answers to the previous question.

+27Instead of using carry forward you can make each left and right statement a choice and use display logic based on recodes.
+1Dear Tom,
Thanks for the advice. Sorry if I am being silly, but could you let me know how to go about making each left and right statement a choice from a matrix table? I've had a look at the options and can't see where to do this.
Thanks in advance,
Paul

+1Hi folks,
Sorry to bring this one up again. However, when I list each of the statements in the following question and try to use display logic it does not give me the option to select _either _of the statements from the bipolar choice. It simply gives me the option to select Left1|Right1 (i.e. both statements from either side of the bipolar choice).
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Paul
