Sorry to disturb you. Please is there any procedures one can use in putting table on kobo toolbox without using question matrix so that when redeploying your questionnaire one can made use of collecting data on android. Thanks for your assistance.

Maybe if you have a few options you could use this approach as an alternative to the matrix question. Doing so you could collect your data through the Collect android app.

Hello,
I think this is NOT a problem. It just gives a Warning the the group has no label… Which might even be desired, when you want hide a level (group) title/structure on screen, but use a grouping for programming (esp. relevant).

Hi @smartgbola1

Have you tried to the approach listed out above. This however has limitations when compared with the matrix question type. Also please be informed that there is no way where a user could collect matrix question data through Collect android app.

No sir, I have a lot of table in the questionnaire in which is more than one column. After reading about it I found out that in using kobo collecting on android the column for each table can’t be more than one. ( more clarification )

Please how do I use logic condition on matrix question. Thanks for your assistance.
