On my understanding of IDs making.


IDs are important to produce to identify respondents of questionnaire modules.

For each person the ID remains same in respondent ID column but for multiple questions the name of variable are mostly differentiated by putting $ symbol and then option number.

According to your description, forate of your data file seems verticle. But f=generally these are in horizontal formate.

If your expain more on your research question, i may be able to assist you better.

Regards.
