Export Session Data
Questions you designate as bonus questions are not included in the total number of questions for
calculating scores, but are included in a participant’s number of correct responses.
14 When you have finished modifying the settings on the applicable tabs, click Next.
The Export Data window displays a group of settings for specifying the format of the exported file.
Export Session Data: Select Format
There is an example entry at the bottom of the window showing a sample based on the settings
specified. Observe this example as you change the format settings in the next few steps to ensure it
matches your expectations.
15 Specify the order of the fields in the exported file by moving the fields up and down the list, by selecting
the Move Up and Move Down arrow buttons.
Additionally, you can join two fields together or include blank fields in the exported file. Use the Insert
A Blank Field and Insert A Join Field buttons below the list of fields to insert a blank field or join one or
more fields. You can move blank fields and joined fields up and down the list just like the other fields.
A blank field puts a blank separator between fields. Depending on how you will use the exported file,
you may need to separate some data with blank fields.
A join field joins the previous field and the following field into a single field. You might wish to do this
with the First Name and Last Name fields, for example.
16 Specify whether to create a delimited or fixed-width file.
A delimited file includes a “delimiter” between each of the fields. You can select a comma, semicolon,
tab, space, or other delimiter.
A fixed-width file uses fields of a specified width (number of characters). You can choose a width for the
fields.
