Displaying a question in only one language

Problem

You want to display a question only to respondents using a certain language.

Solution

Insert a display condition such as:

    LANGUAGE(FR)

Discussion

Say some text must be displayed only in French. Using the question's display condition (a logical expression describing the circumstances when the question is displayed) and the special operator LANGUAGE(), it is possible to zoom in on cases being filled out only in one language.

In a multi-language questionnaire, it would also be possible to identify more than one language using the following syntax:

    LANGUAGE(FR) .OR. LANGUAGE(EN)

The LANGUAGE() operator is synonym with LANGUE().
