You want it to be called before anything else when the questionnaire starts so you would put it in the level preproc. The level is the one that ends in "_QUEST". Make sure you use preproc otherwise it will happen at the end of the questionnaire after the data is entered.

Make sure you have the right Dropbox. You could be logged into a different one. Also make sure the case (upper/lower) is correct when you specify the filename. It matters with Dropbox.

Maybe this part is supposed to be a comment but is missing the "//"?

(where QAD_1= the maximum occurence)

We don't have an option for that in the pff file. You could try doing something in logic. Check if it is not add mode using demode() and check if it is a partial case using ispartial(). if demode() <> 1 and not ispartial() then errmsg("Modification not allowed"); stop(0); endif;

I would use a lookup file to do this. Create an Excel spreadsheet with the village code in one column and the investigator name in the other. Use the Excel2CSPro tool to create a data dictionary and data file from the Excel spreadsheet. Add the dictionary you create as an external dictionary to your...

Look at the help for forcase. You don't use parenthesis around the dictionary name:

forcase LISTING_DICT do

Also forcase replaces locate/while loadcase so you don't need both.

You have a lot of files given the number of cases. Your interviewers are probably syncing frequently. The total time is not too surprising given the number of files. It takes about .5 seconds to download a single file on my connection which means 120 files/minute. Now that you have done it once, usi...

I would expect a full download from the Dropbox to be slow since it has to download every file and there will be one file generated every time a tablet syncs. That said, 30 minutes for 1295 households is slower than I would expect. How many files are there in the Dropox/CSPro/datasync/<dictionary>/d...
