The date field is limited in scope because we are using the default Android date control. 1) The thinking is that if you only want a year, you can just make it a text field (numeric length 4). You don't need a control for this. 3) This is simply the Android behavior. In fact, this is different on di...

Probably not, as you're the only person to ever request this. :D One thing that you can do is make the field a combo box, which will then allow the user to click on a box and see the possible ranges (as defined by the value set). That's definitely not the same, but it allows you to give the intervie...

The CSPro DB format is mostly useful if you want to use CSPro's data synchronization features. Some future development (e.g., storing images in a data file) may only occur in the CSPro DB format, so if you want to use the most up-to-date features, you will want to use CSPro DB. If you want to use Dr...

It is likely a problem with how you are you specifying the file in the PFF. We have run many menu applications that use .csdb files.

Compare the PFF that is generated when you run the program with the one that is created by your menu program to see what the differences are.

No, there is not. The tickmarks were traditionally used to coordinate during a key-from-paper operation, so we never thought about adding them to the touch-friendly environment. Unfortunately, that does lead to a result where interviewers do not know the size of the field / how many decimal digits a...

One option would be to have a flag in your BRANCH_DICT that indicates whether or not that value was selected previously. If that were the case, then your loop would look like this: forcase BRANCH_DICT where TAX_ID = XTAX_ID and SELECTED = 0 do Then, after the selection of the BRANCH_ID, you would do...

You can loop through your roster to identify eligible women, or you can also use the seek function. This code, for example, will identify the eligible women: numeric indexEligible = seek (SEX = 2 and AGE in 12 : 49 and LIVE_IN_HH = 1 ); while indexEligible > 0 do errmsg ( "Person #%d is eligibl...

CSPro is backwards compatible, for the most part, so your programs will not have to change when you move to CSPro 7.0. CSPro 7.0 should run your programs in the same way that CSPro 6.3 did. However, if you want to sync your data with Dropbox, then you will have to: 1) Use the CSPro DB data file form...

There has been discussion about adding enhanced value set operations in a future release. For now, you can skip over unused values by checking if getlabel returns blank. This code would allow you to only process the values in your value set: do ctr = minvalue (FIELD_NAME) while ctr <= maxvalue (FIEL...

In CSPro 7.1, you can use a function in the CAPI text in the same way that you use variables. So your text could be something like this: %GetCapiText% With a function: function string GetCapiText() GetCapiText = "Dynamic CAPI text!" ; end ; I'm not 100% sure, but I think that getsymbol() w...
