Re-visiting a question

Dear Sirs et Madames,
I know that it is possible to SKIP a question depending on an answer
previously given in ODK (via relevancy) but was wondering if it is
also possible to RE-VISIT a question previously answered as a result
of an answer later given. For example a respondent may be asked "Have
you ever been pregnant?" where they respond "no", but a few questions
later they may be asked "how many children have you given birth to?"
where they respond (maybe) "3". At that point is it possible to design
the form so that it re-visits the original question as there is a
contradiction here? Forgive the examples, they are a little contrived.

Thanks in advance,
Tumaini

no. the best you can do is ask a follow up question that is relevant
only when the two answers are in conflict.

ok , thats what I thought... was trying to reduce the amount of data stored
in the db and the complexity of the resultant queries. Thanks though :slight_smile:
