Hi,
I'm piping answers from one open-ended grid cell to another. The values in the initial open-ended grid cell are numeric, but I'd like to give respondents the option of entering commas for numbers >1,000 and I'd prefer not to deal with the approach laid out in Sawtooth's "I would like to add a thousands separator to a numeric field as people type in an answer" webpage, so I'm just using an open-ended grid cell and I'll do some post-processing of the inputs.
Trouble is, when I pipe an open-ended entry from one grid cell to another, any values after a comma get cut off. When I simply ask Sawtooth to display GETVALUE("Q3_r1_c1"), it shows the whole number, but with m code below, numbers/text after the comma are removed. (My code below pipes values from one grid in Q3 to a grid in Q4).
I think I'll be ready to launch my survey after I resolve this minor issue. How can I avoid this problem?
Thanks very much.
