<title>Multiple Events Remark Entry</title>
If someone wanted to enter multiple events like height and
weight events from the same list, anyone know of a way to chain event entries
such that the user is prompted
for height then weight on each animal?
Answer:
Special case for Remark
of Events (Type 73)
After the event name is chosen,
there is another prompt that appears, shown below. If ESC is pressed, the
item will return the entire 8 characters in the REM. If one of the three subfields
is chosen, the item will return only that subfield. The subfields can be
entered by separating the subfields by a “’/” sign.

Example: To enter a height, weight, and
girth for a measurement:
Height of 45 inches, weight of 600 (to nearest 10 pounds), and a body condition
of 3.5:
REM=45/60/35
I think if you enter one event (MEASURD? make sure it is not MEASURE)
and separate the height and weight by a "/" it can be analyzed by
making some items and it is recorded in one event
