Q.
What is the difference between CATI and CAPI?
A.
CATI means “computer assisted telephone interview” and refers to a
type of software used at centrally located phone centers. Here, interviewers
dial phone numbers of potential respondents at their home or place of business,
with the respondents representing a select sampling of the population.
CAPI means “computer assisted personal interview.” This type of interviewing is
usually completed in person at the homes or businesses of selected respondents,
or at mall intercept centers. WinQuery can be easily switched between
these two modes.

Q.
Can WinQuery be used for Web-based interviewing on the Internet?
A. Yes. You can save any questionnaire
in Web-ready format. You may then easily upload the Web-ready files to
our hosting server running QueryWeb.
Q.
Can WinQuery jobs be shared with other marketing research companies?
A. WinQuery users are able to easily share work with each other. In order to
complete large studies in less time, WinQuery users can tap into the
capacity of other users located around
the world through Query Partners,
a Web-based referral service. All WinQuery users are invited to
participate in Query Partners free of charge.

Q.
In what format does WinQuery store its data?
A. WinQuery data is stored in ASCII files. Using this widely-recognized
format, data can easily be output in either a card/column, single record
layout, comma delimited or tab
delimited format.
Q.
Can WinQuery utilize an electronic form of a survey questionnaire/instrument?
A.
Using some simple formatting rules, you can import almost any type of survey
questionnaire/instrument, then edit it in WinQuery. This can save you a
lot of time during the programming process and in duplication of tasks.

Q.
Which tabulation packages can be used with the data collected by WinQuery?
A.
Data collected in WinQuery can be directly imported into WinCross
the widely popular and powerful crosstabulation software produced by The
Analytical Group. With the purchase of an
optional
linking module, WinQuery data can also be used by SPSS, Uncle,
Microtab, Quantum, Merlin or The
Survey System.
Q.
Can WinQuery be used with a predictive dialer?
A.
Used along with a modem and optional dialer software, WinQuery can
automatically dial a phone number for the agent/interviewer, thereby increasing
productivity. StrataDial, a predictive dialer by StrataSoft, and Pro-T-S, a
power dialer by Marketing Systems Group, are two predictive dialing systems WinQuery supports.

Q.
How do I create a volumetric series?
A volumetric is used to compare a constant
value to a numeric question. It can also be used to compare two numeric
questions.

Q.
How do I store and use data captured
in a loop?
In order to refer back to the data
collected in a loop, the data must be stored in a separate dummy question.
(loop data.pdf,

Q. What is
WinQuery Expert version?
How do I use it?
Master Expert and Expert version are an optional WinQuery
feature, purchased separately.
Being the most expedient method of creating a
WinQuery questionnaire, it lets
you write logic commands using your text
editor for inclusion in your
questionnaire, bypassing
the Build Questionnaire menu
options.
Master Expert allows you to program a
WinQuery study using logic commands to
input question text, answer text and
study logic. Regular Expert version only
allows logic to be applied to an
existing study (question and answer text
must be input separately for regular
Expert version).
