Placing a question group onto an eForm

Once you have created a question group, there are two ways to place the question group onto an eForm:

Group Questions	This displays a list of the questions belonging to the group. You can't change these here, but you can change them if you edit the group definition.
Group Code	This is the unique identifier of the group, assigned when the group was created, and cannot be changed.
Group Name	This is the name of the group. You can't change it here, but you can change it if you edit the group definition.
Display Border	When this box is selected, a border will be displayed around the question group on the eForm.
Display Row Number	When this box is selected, the row number will be displayed at the start of each row.
Display Row Status	When this box is selected, the row status icon will be displayed at the start of each row. Row status does not appear anywhere else and cannot be specified in a data search; it is purely for information on the eForm itself. The row status is taken from the combined statuses of the questions within the row. Click here for information on status priority.
Main Form Row Type	This specifies how you want the main row to appear on the eForm: Select Single Line Display to display the row in a single line. See image This uses a horizontal scroll bar to fit all questions onto a single line. Select Multiple Line Display to display the row in multiple lines. See image This wraps questions onto multiple lines and uses a vertical scroll bar.
Sub Form Row Type	This specifies how you want any sub rows to appear on the eForm: Select Single Line Display to display the row in a single line. See image This uses a horizontal scroll bar to fit all questions onto a single line. Select Multiple Line Display to display the row in multiple lines. See image This wraps questions onto multiple lines and uses a vertical scroll bar.
Max Repeats	Use this to enter the maximum number of rows of data that can be entered. Data entry users will not be able to enter more rows than this. The max repeats cannot be less than the min repeats.
Min Repeats	Use this to enter the minimum number of rows that must be filled in for the question group to be complete. The min repeats cannot be greater than the max repeats. Click here for further information on statuses and completion.
Initial No. of Rows	Use this to enter the number of rows to be displayed when the eForm is first opened in data entry. This cannot be greater than the max repeats.
No. of Display Rows	Use this to enter the number of rows that will be displayed within the group border. This determines the size of the question group on the eForm. If there are more rows of data than can be displayed (up the maximum specified) during data entry, a vertical scroll bar will appear to allow viewing of all rows. Note that the initial number of rows can be greater or less than the display rows. If it is less, there will be a blank area in the group display. If it is more, there will be a vertical scroll bar for the group.

You can also copy and paste questions and question groups directly from one eForm to another.

Note: We recommend that you do not place any eForm items directly to the right of a repeating question group as display restrictions on web pages may result in the group not displaying correctly.

You can control when a new group row appears in Data Entry by setting group questions to Mandatory in the eForm Definition dialog. A new row will be

automatically created (up to the "Max Repeats") when all mandatory questions on the current row have been filled in. By setting certain group questions to be Mandatory, you can determine how many fields must be filled in before a new row is created
