I'm pretty sure this is unsaveable but I have a datafile which logged my data differently then expected. I remember asking my intern/student to check it but after we changed the programming from a likertscale to a radiobuttons command that represented a likert scale (due to the impossibility of changing the likertscale background from white to gray), he/i forgot to recheck. So basically, it's a 7 point scale but instead of logging 1-7 it logs the labels which means that now I only have the extermes logged "negativ" - "positiv" and everything in between is logged as " ". In the unlikely case there is a way to retrieve which " " is e.g. 3 and which one is 5 it would be great if you could tell me how..
Best,

Best, Eva To have numerical values logged instead of blank labels, you ought to specify the <radiobuttons> element's /optionvalues attribute:
<radiobuttons myrb> / options = ("negative", "", "", "", "", "", "positiv") / optionvalues = ("1", "2", "3","4", "5", "6", "7") / orientation = horizontalequal </radiobuttons>
<surveypage mpyage> / questions = [1=myrb] </surveypage>
<block mblock> / trials = [1=mpyage] </block>
It is not possible to recover any data that hasn't been recorded, i.e. if /optionvalues was not specified, there is no way to determine which numerical a given "blank" would correspond to.

Hi dave,
Thanks! Thats what I thought :/ In any case that should save me trouble in the future :)
