Entry details window introduction

The Entry details window is used to create and change all types of entries, except program entries.

The settings available on the entry details window will depend on the type of entry being inserted or updated.

If you select a list of entries to update then you can move around this selected list using toolbar buttons.  You can also move to the previous or next entry in the project (whether or not it is on the selected list) with two more toolbar buttons.  See Entry details window toolbar.

Any changes made with this window are applied immediately.  You can undo and redo any changes made to an entry until the project is saved.

You can have more than one Entry details window open at the same time.  This is useful if you wish to copy details such as applied filters or responses from one entry to another.

The entry details window has a number of tabs that are used to set the various parts.  For convenience the response lists for single-coded and multi-coded questions and variables are shown both on the main tab and also in a separate "Responses" tab.  The list on the main tab is for information only; changes can only be made using the "Responses" tab.

For questions with response lists a separate Response input tool window is requested used to control input for individual responses.

For questions and variables with response lists a separate Response analysis tool window is requested used to control the analysis for individual responses.
