NIPO ODIN Version 5.17
Triple-S XML
Triple-S XML is a open standard data format using XML. It is supported by a variety of products, including but not limited to:
- Bellview
- CfMC Survent
- Merlin
- Miriad (TNS)

An export to Triple-S requires that the survey data file is present in same the directory as the questionnaire that is exported. For a questionnaire NAMEQ, the data file should be named NAME.DAT.

Select the code page to convert the export into. Make sure the selected code page matches the language of your questionnaire.

In addition to optionally coded open-ended questions, this exports open-ended answer verbatim into the data file.
