Hello
I have grouped together four text questions on one screen that I want the
entrant to enter at least one or all before going to next screen,
Is this possible?
Hi Ayoub,
You can add a formula to the "required" field of the last text question
which tests whether the other 3 are all blank, and then prevents the user
from continuing.
e.g. ${text_one} ='' and ${text_two} ='' and ${text_three} =''
Note that those are two single quote signs [ ' ] and [ ' ] to indicate
a blank string, and not a double quote [ " ]
It's also useful to add the "required_message" field with something like
"You need to enter a value for at least one of these"

It has worked, only that when I inlcude the "required_message" it does not
convert to XML, yet when I remove it, it works

Hi Ayoub,
Glad that's working.
Just to clarify: For the required message you should add a new column to
your spreadsheet with heading "required_message", and in that column you
put: You need to enter a value for at least one of these.
If that's what you did then I can try have a look at your spreadsheet to
see if I can spot the problem.
Was there any error message when it does not convert to XML?
Regards,
Andrew
