Using combined strings in file attribute for

Hi,

  I am trying to make a custom data filename which combines a few different strings from inputs in the first survey page but whenever I try to use a string value i.e.

<data>
/file = values.filename
</data>

it tells me that the file attribute is missing double quotes.  How can I make this work?

Thanks!

You can't. Inquisit needs to know where to store data / the data file name before it ever collects any input or displays anything. This means you cannot determine the data file location and/or name based on some variable (<values> entry) that is only determined later and/or may change at runtime.
