327833.0.0-4.0.84.0.92010-03-15Survey DesignerThe optional variable information displayed immediately below each block does not include rating question block variables' scale labels and values.There is no workaround.
317813.5.0-4.0.84.0.92010-02-09Web SurveysWhen you configure a web survey to have Survey Crafter Professional's web survey script clear answers to skipped questions, the script clears answers to questions on pages that are seen but not to answers to questions on pages that are not seen. Answers to questions that are supposed to have been skipped are marked "unexpected" in Survey Crafter Professional's Data window.There is no workaround.
307803.5.0-4.0.84.0.92010-02-09Web SurveysWhen used in a web survey, expression language functions IS_MISSING and IS_VALID consider "No Reply" answers to closed-end and rating questions as valid instead of missing.Rewrite an expression such as IS_MISSING(VarName) to VarName=NR OR VarName=NV or IS_VALID(VarName) to VarName<>NR AND VarName<>NV when the expression will be used in a web survey.
297823.5.0-4.0.84.0.92010-02-04GeneralWhen used in Survey Crafter Professional, expression language function LIST_SIZE does not count the last element in a list when the list ends with a separator character.There is no workaround.

Instead, the tab's Next button setting should be used in this error message for all but the last page of the survey.For all but the last HTML page of your web survey, change the value property of the R_EnterKeyDoesNotSubmit hidden input field to use the label of the survey's Next button.
67494.0.0-4.0.84.0.92009-05-07Web SurveysThe JavaScript function date.getYear() returns a 4-digit year instead of a 2-digit year for JavaScript versions 1.3 and 1.8. Version 1.3 is used by Internet Explorer 8 and version 1.8 is used by Firefox 3.0.x. The impact is unexpected results in expressions using the FORMAT_LOCALTIME and LOCALTIME_PART expression language functions in custom rules for your web survey.There is no workaround.
57484.0.0-4.0.84.0.92009-04-23Batch ReportsBatch report charts are exported to HTML as JPEG files using the .JPG filename extension whereas charts exported for MS Excel/JPEG files use the .jpg filename extension.

37454.0.0-4.0.74.0.82008-07-01InterviewerSurvey Crafter Professional has a feature that has the program automatically move newly entered records from the built-in Interviewer into the program's Data window and then save the study file. After closing the Interviewer, if you do not save the study file again before exiting the program, extra information remains in the study file, causing the study file to increase in size. After repeating this many times, eventually, the study file becomes large enough that Survey Crafter Professional fails to save the study file.Make a change to your study after closing the built-in Interviewer and then save the study file.
27443.4.0-4.0.74.0.82008-06-30Survey DesignerWhen Survey Crafter Professional publishes your survey's web files or initializes the built-in Interviewer, it reorganizes the expressions from your survey's branching and skipping rules, building new expressions in order to make it possible to enable and disable question blocks and to skip pages. When there are more than a few branching rules, depending on how the rules relate to each other, Survey Crafter Professional can build expressions that are too long for it to handle, causing it to crash.Change some or all of your branching rules to skip question block or skip page rules. Contact Survey Crafter technical support for help.
17434.0.0-4.0.74.0.82008-05-30Survey DesignerSurvey Crafter Professional does not consider the study file modified when you enable or disable a custom rule via the pop-up menu on the Survey Explorer toolbar.There is no workaround.

27394.0.0-4.0.64.0.72008-04-18Batch ReportsThe Custom Script Batch Report Design Item does not support imposing a different row filter on each row in the frequency section of a Basic Analysis table.There is no workaround.
17384.0.0-4.0.64.0.72008-04-15Survey DesignerSurvey Crafter Professional stops looking for survey fields when it encounters an incomplete one. The impact of this is the Survey Designer window's Survey Explorer toolbar can show an incomplete list of survey fields. In addition, when a survey is published to the Web, survey fields after an incomplete one are ignored in the web survey.Delete the first survey field that is not listed and then insert a new one in its place. If this does not fix the problem, contact Survey Crafter technical support.
