Rating Scale in SharePoint Survey List Programmatically

In SharePoint Survey List, Rating scale is very easy to implement, set properties and use this in SharePoint. I found an easy way to implement this rating scale in SharePoint using coding in Feature activation.

When you are Creating a survey list programmatically, add this field to the SharePoint survey list.

Code:

//Adding Question to Survey List Programmatically with rating scale

strQuestionTitle = "Lecturer Skills";

StringCollection strQuestions = new StringCollection();

strQuestions.Add("Approachability");

strQuestions.Add("Availability");

strQuestions.Add("Share Knowledge");

strQuestions.Add("Motivate");

strQuestions.Add("Provide guidance");

objSurvey.Fields.Add(strQuestionTitle, SPFieldType.GridChoice, true, false, strQuestions);

//Updating Rating scale field properties

SPFieldRatingScale srs = objSurvey.Fields[strQuestionTitle] as SPFieldRatingScale;

srs.GridTextRangeLow = "Low";

srs.GridTextRangeHigh = "High";

srs.GridTextRangeAverage = "Avg";

srs.GridStartNumber = 1;

srs.GridEndNumber = 5;

srs.GridNAOptionText = "NA";

srs.Update();

//Updating survey list

objSurvey.Update();
