Roster Add Line Question Type

For a introduction and general discussion of Rosters, see Roster Question Types.

This roster question type allows the user to add a line to a roster. The Designer screen below shows a simple roster, ROSTER_INFO, linked to the Roster Add Line question type via the ROSTER field. Simply by selecting the roster to be used in the ROSTER field, the Survey will set up the necessary processes to display a blank line to add.

Text may be added in the Question Text field by typing it in; the roster fields to be displayed in this particular question's text may be selected by checking its Show checkbox. The Ask checkbox appears in the Roster Edit and Roster Add question types only. If checked, it will prompt the interviewer to ask about that field and possibly edit it during the survey. If the Ask checkbox is checked, the Show checkbox will automatically be checked. The reverse is not true.
