Newuser.tpg allows the SysOp to make a newuser questionaire of his choice
and run it under TBDS. Because it runs under TBDS it will also allow you
to import this data into other databases. The design of your questions and
responses are pretty straight forward.
Newuser is set up to allow anyone with a privlege level of 255 of enter the
editor. When you enter the editor you will see the following screen:
< 1 > Add questions or text lines
< 2 > Edit questions or text lines
< 3 > View responses
< 4 > Print responses
< 5 > Delete current response file
< 0 > Exit
This screeen is very straight forward.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
By selecting 1 you will be presented with a line with a number on it like
Line # 10 ____________________________________
This indicates that this will be line number 10 in your questionaire.
You are allowed 40 characters for the question.
Next you will be asked if you need a response for this line.
This means that if you select Y then it will prompt the caller for an input,
otherwise it will be treated as a text line that will be only displayed.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
By selecting 2 You will be presented with a list of the lines you currently
have in the questionaire and whether or not they require a response from the
caller. You will then be asked which one you wish to edit.
You will then correct the wording and/or reponse type.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
By selecting 3 you can step through each of the responses that the callers
have entered.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
By selecting 4 you can print all the responses.
You will be prompted for the number of the printer you wish to direct it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
By selecting 5 You can delete the response file
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
And finally 0 to exit the program
You will need to run this program as a ^@ type program.
I have my cedit set up with no newuser flags
Entry:
Priv=0 A1=-------. A2=-------- A3=-------- A4=-------- ANS=- IBM=-
KEY=^@ TYPE=200 Opt Data=Newuser/q
So note at the eighth position of A1 is a not flag. The questionaire will be
triggered when a called does not have the eighth A1 set.
I follow the first menu with the next one which uses a QAF file to set the
eight A1 flag.
Entry:
Priv=0 A1=-------. A2=-------- A3=-------- A4=-------- ANS=- IBM=-
KEY=^@ TYPE=32 Opt Data=Newuser/NP
I have a Newuser.qaf set up with the following Flag sets
Any A1, A2, A3, or A4 flags you mark here will be Changed in the Caller's
USERLOG entry when he completes this Q&A file fully and without error.
Flags marked "X" will be set, Flags marked "." will be reset, and
Flags marked "-" are left unchanged when the Q&A completes.
Current A1 = -------X A2 = -------- A3 = -------- A4 = --------
In this manner a caller will only answer the Newuser questionaire once.
However you can make several different directories and use the same programs
with different databases and do all sort of surveys, etc.
