Lists --

            OK, I need some help as usual.

            I have entered my geographic hierarchy. 

            I have entered the data elements for a simple form (18
count-type indicators disaggregated by sex), I have put them in a group.
(BTW, it would be good to have [Unassigned] as a group filter for those
who intend to add all their elements and then their group.)  I have
assigned the group's elements to a dataset and the dataset to certain
facilities.  

            1.         How do I specify the disaggregation?  Do I have
to make a combination of categories that contains only sex?  It seems to
work for the naked dataset (i.e. no sections, no form) but not when
entering by sections.  

            2.         How do I control the order of appearance of data
elements in the naked dataset?

            3.         How do I make sections display the categories?
Was the idea that each section would contain a single category?

            4.         How do I make zeros display and suppress the
"don't enter zeroes" message?  

            5.         The green "tool tip" box gets in the way.  How
about displaying it on a right click instead of always?

            I have another form on which I would like to enter detail
but transmit only summary counts.  It is attached.  Everything is just a
check mark except for the page headings, day, file number (which is not
unique per patient and probably won't be entered) and invalids.  There
is one field that has to be added for data entry, it's number
counselled, follows counseling type (1 for individual, 2 for couples, n
for family).  There are two fields that have to be modified: day becomes
visit date, composed of month and year from the top plus day; instead of
checking A, B, or C for counselor, enter the counselor's ID from above.
The 3 boxes starting with partner org and counselor will be used for
grouping, service is the hierarchy level below facility.  There are some
complications about the indicators: 

            HIV positive and negative will be reported by sex
(male/female) and age combinations.  

            Kits used= 2 if positive or indeterminate or 1 if negative +
invalid

            Sessions= sum of reciprocal of number counselled

            For the columns beginning TB,  % referred = 100 * referred /
counselled  

Reporting frequency is ad hoc except each sheet will contain data for
only a single month, which is the basic tabulation unit.  I am at a loss
as to how to do this.  If somebody wants to walk me through this rather
than write, I can call you.

Thanks, Roger
