I would like to be able to make polygons using the device GPS, so I can map areas. It can be saved in a separate file!
The other thing I would like to see is the possibility to generate individual reports (for each household or occurrence) of the survey with selected itens (administrator select the items)
Tracking (GPS), report generation
Re: Tracking (GPS), report generation
Making polygons with the GPS is a bit out of the scope of CSPro. For that I would look at one of the ESRI mobile products or something similar.
You can do some reporting with the current system although it is a bit tricky. The idea is to write out the report to a text file (or an html file if you are familiar with html) using the function filewrite() and then using execsystem() to display the file that you wrote out.
You can see a simple example at: http://teleyah.com/cspro/DCJune2015/07- ... diaGPS.pdf and http://teleyah.com/cspro/DCJune2015/07- ... urvey7.zip
htuser has taken this quite a bit further and has come up with a way to generate html versions of his forms using a similar technique. Maybe he can give you some advice.

Dear Rcovane,
As mentioned by Josh, i was able to output complexes questionnaires (50 pages 8.5/11) in HTML format as beautiful paper (MS Word) like customized copy. More, with Josh's help, i'm able to write a function to output about 3000 Csentry forms(questionnaires) to html formats in seconds. It's very useful for quality control and archiving purpose. Also,paper survey nostalgic's find out a way to print electronic questionnaires!
To do it, i use an user defined function. If you're not familiar to CSS/HTML coding, and if you don't have basic to intermediate level in Cspro coding, it may be difficult to do it. Please, let me know how can i help you.
Regards,

Re: Tracking (GPS), report generation
Thank you for your help. I'm moving from basic to intermediate now and trying to introduce tablets in the surveys from my company. I'll see with the IT guy how is his css/html coding and i'll return to you soon.htuser wrote:Dear Rcovane,

For GPS shapes mapping i'll test the "Geo tracker" instead of ESRI, since i'm going to field now just to test it.

Dear htuser
I'm a CSPro user. I would be very grateful to you if you could help me with the function that you designed with the help of Josh to quickly transcribe CSEntry many forms (questionnaires) in "HTML format as beautiful paper (MS Word) like customized copy". I want to print some questionnaires from the same operation in different phases for comparison purposes. I will try to go a little further in learning HTML if necessary to exploit the code you wrote. I sent you the following email address to send me programs: mb_merlino@yahoo.com
Thanks in advance!

Re: Tracking (GPS), report generation
Dear htuser,
I would like to see it too to show to the IT guys so they can help me out. My email is roque.covane@Gmail.com
One question, I write the code after the survey so it produces all the summaries at once or I write before so it can be produced on the fly?

Re: Tracking (GPS), report generation
You write a function do it and you evoke this user defined function inside whatever variable and it summary the whole case. So i write it before.
I already send to you a contact email.
