Cannot get answers in an anonymous survey

Added by Juani Mela over 5 years ago

Hello:

Last year I made an anonymous survey, got the answers, made my statistics. This year I used the same file generated last year, the scan went perfect, almost no intervention required to capture the data. But I cannot export the answer, I only get the grades, which are useless.

I'm choosing "Export answers" both "AB" and "0;0;1;0" styles, but they do not appear in the csv.

Last year I was using ubuntu 16.04, now I use 18.04, so I had to download auto-multiple-choice 1.4.0 from your website. However, I remark that the scan was flawless.

Can you give me any hint?

Regards

I do get a warning about the sty file not matching the AMc version. Unfortunately, I cannot copy and paste the whole warning...

I keep trying: now I got the correct answers for 3 surveys, out of a file with 27 perfect scans.

I do get a warning about the sty file not matching the AMc version.

Do you use a local modified version of the style file ?

Thanks, Alexis:

I was using a modified version indeed.

  • If I re-compile with 1.4.0, the old source and the new sty, the scan does not work.
  • If I re-compile with 1.4.0, the old source and the new sty, the scan works, but grades are not exported (only 3 out of 27!).

So now I'm trying to install 1.3.0 from precompiled sources. I'll post in the Install forum if I have problems.

I had forgotten (and couldn't find anywhere) the magic spell:

  1. compile
  2. detect format
  3. capture (scan)
  4. grade with "Actualizar escala de notas" (however it is translated) checked
  5. then grade again with "Actualizar escala de notas" (however it is translated) unchecked
  6. then you can export the answers

And for the record, it worked with the old local modified version of automultiplechoice.sty, despite the warning.
