View issue

I am trying to get a view to display responses in hierarchy but my problem is the top document is a responses document itself.

I have a form named “Response” which is a Response to Response type form

Unfortunately the parent document is also a response to another document. When I select show responses in hierarchy, the view is blank. When I deselect that option, they show up singularly.

this is what I want

responseA

– response (to responseA)

— response (to response to responseA)

responseB

– response (to responseB)

— response (to response to responseB)

responseC

this is what I’m getting (if deselected show resp’s in hierarchy)

responseA

response (to responseA)

responseC

response (to responseB)

response (to response to responseA)

responseB

response (to response to responseB)

The first column is sorted and catagorized using the $REF field

Any ideas?

Subject: RE: View issue

In a hierarchical view, the top level items cannot be response documents.

If you want to somewhat mimic the behavior of a hierarchical view, you can use “ad hoc” multi-level categorization, i.e. with backslashes to separate the category levels. The “categorized as flat” option may also be helpful in getting the appearance you want.
