Forward Slashes No Longer Separate Code Labels

In ODIN 4.08 multiple codes could be placed on a single row by separating them by forward slashes.

Example of ODIN 4.08 script using categories separated by slashes

*QUESTION 5 *CODES L20 *MULTI
Which brand do you know?

1: Brand A / 4: Brand D / 7: Brand G
2: Brand B / 5: Brand E / 8: Brand H
3: Brand C / 6: Brand F / 9: Brand I

19: None of these

NIPO ODIN 5 uses *AUTO and *NEWCOLUMN to create columns of codes automatically:

Alternative in NIPO ODIN 5

*QUESTION 5 *CODES L20 *MULTI *AUTO
Which brand do you know?

1: Brand A
2: Brand B
3: Brand C *NEWCOLUMN
4: Brand D
5: Brand E
6: Brand F *NEWCOLUMN
7: Brand G
8: Brand H
9: Brand I

19: None of these *STOPAUTO

Note:
IN NIPO CATI the columns are only created if the page becomes too long to fit in the window. Since NIPO CAPI and NIPO CAWI are browser-based the height of the window cannot be decided; use *NEWCOLUMN to force columns where required.
