Abstract: A response form processing system (22) is provided which allows for the processing of response forms (10) which comprise a group code (20), questions (12) and (14), response prompts (16) and response blocks (18). The system (22) comprises a response scanner (28) which is coupled to a processor (26). The processor (26) receives information from the group code (20) which identifies which questions are present on a particular response form (10) and comprises information as to the format of a particular form. The processor (26) then receives the scanned responses from the response scanner (28). The processor (26) organizes and tabulates the responses and is capable of producing reports comprising the information received from the response forms (10).
