Results Analyzer Report Key Facility

Members that make regular use of the online Results Analyzer's Report key facility will already know and appreciate how useful the facility is.

For those that are unfamiliar with the facility the report key allows you to specify a respondent's answer as a key and then associate that value to other responses.

For example if you have requested the respondent's name you can specify their name as the report key and have their name appear against any comments that they made, or against other free text answers.

For more information please view the Defining a Report Key tutorial.

For those that are already familiar with Report Key facility please be advised that we have made an improvement with the grouping of Report Keys with the same value whereby blank values, (or 'no response' data), will in future be identified by having a Report key group value of <Blank>.

New Feature for 2011

We would like to wish all our Member's the very best for the New Year and are pleased to introduce a new feature that will enable the Results Analyzer report to be exported to Microsoft Word format and for the individual charts to be displayed as a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation and also supply the Flash charts as separate BMP images.

An Export button that will activate the facility has replaced the Results Analyzer's Print button.



The Export button will display a selection of Export formats and provides the facility to include a reference which may prove useful if the reports are using filtered results, in which case the reference could be for example "Male only Responses".




Once submitted the request will be queued for processing and when completed a confirmation Email sent providing a link to the requested formats. The documents are delivered in a zipped format protected with the Member's case sensitive Survey Galaxy password.

The charts can be supplied as individual static BMP images and/or as Flash object's that will provide the full Flash interactive experience such as hover text and for pie and doughnut formats, rotation and slicing.

Downloads will also be listed in the Results Export section of the Show Survey Details screen.

The online Results Analyzer will also now display a warning message to remind users of privacy and confidentiality issues whenever public access is set to anything other than deny.
