1 IBUC 97 4 th International Blaise Users Conference Paris France May 1997

CAPI questionnaires are ideally “self-documenting” that is, someone who is familiar with Blaise can understand them. However, there are many users of the information contained in a datamodel, and some are more comfortable with paper documents similar to PAPI questionnaires. Existing Blaise tools cannot create such documents, since they do not make routing information available. So each project within SSD has managed the problem in a different way, some of which involve a heavy manual element. The paper discusses the different kinds of documentation required, the methods used to manage the problem in the past, and the development of a tool which automates the task.
