I installed and tested Arena Mobile with an exiting urvey: works really great! Only 2 questions so far: 1) The order/sequence of attributes in Desktop and Mobile are not the same: how I can hange order in Mobile; 2) Can I upload a record a 2nd time to update with some new data: can I overwrite or do I need the concerned record first in the (desktop)database? Thanks ahead.

Dear Joseph,
We are working on the data import module in Arena, and you are right, updating a record with newer data should be / will be possible.
We will let you know as soon as there will be new updates, many thanks,

As phasing is applied a in Collect, then I think in phase ENTER over-write with newer entry may/should be possible, during/after CLEANSING not anymore. The validator may demote to ENTER to make re-entry with revised records again possible if needed. If not such phasing, then over-write is not advisable - the record could then be deleted on the server database to make re-entry/update from Arena Mobile again possible.
