My Projects Project Home Project Setup Online Designer Data Dictionary Codebook

The Codebook is a human-readable, read-only version of the project's Data Dictionary and serves as a quick reference for viewing the attributes of any given field in the project without having to download and interpret the Data Dictionary. Note: Checkbox fields have their coded values displayed both in the format defined by users in the Online Designer/Data Dictionary as well as in the extended format seen in data imports and exports (i.e., field___code).
