Hello to all!
I'm trying to create a survey using paper quesionnare. I have a problem with creating multiple choice question with text fields that interviewer has to fill. Will be very thankful for your advices.

Hi Alex,
Depends on your needs, but I'd have a select as the first question.
Then after, put a group with a text box for each of the options. I
find the group will look best if you use appearance=field-list. Now,
make each option relevant if the multiple choice option has been
selected.
Thanks,
Yaw

Hi Yaw and other ODKers,
I had the same question. In response to your suggestion Yaw, I feel having two questions is burdensome on the participant. I'd like to have a free-text and tick box options.
e.g.
How many vegetables did you eat yesterday?
a. Number of times:
b. Don't remember
c. Prefer not to say
Is this possible?
I thought about having a hint saying "Insert 90 if you cannot remember or 99 if you'd prefer not to say" and then have a prompt depending on their answer, but I feel this is more prone to data entry errors than the above example (e.g. people entering 9 instead of 99 and the prompt not alerting them to this)
Thanks,
Jocelyn
Hello Jocelyn,
Put the question as a select one question type with options as a) I will say , b) Don't remember , c) Prefer not to say. And then if the user selects the first option on the next screen you can ask Number of times question as an integer type question . I hope this helps . If it is not preferred then there is other way .
In a group Put the question as a note and ask the a) Number of times as an integer question type and b,c questions as select one type questions with options as yes , no . Make all the questions non mandatory so that user can fill any one of his wish . You can choose anyone of them according to your comfort . Hope this helps .
Thanks and Regards ,
SGSC.
