The\u00a0Join Import Wizard<\/strong>\u00a0merges two offline surveys that have been sent to the same participants but have different questions or variables. The two surveys are called the current survey and the donor survey. The current survey is the survey selected in the Survey Overview window and the donor survey is the survey that will be imported into the current survey. We recommend that you archive or clone the current survey and donor survey before running the Join Import Wizard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The import matches records from the two surveys and appends the data from the donor survey to the current survey. If there is no match, you can decide to discard the data for that case or add the case to the end of the current survey as a new response. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The import process alters the variables from the\u00a0donor survey. An initial letter or sequence of characters may be added at the start of the variable name with R used as the default. This helps to identify which survey a variable originated from. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
