IServices.GetAnswers Method

IServices GetAnswers Method

This method overlays any answer collections passed into it, into a single XML answer collection. It has two primary uses: it can be used to combine multiple answer collections into a single answer collection; and/or it can be used to "resolve" or standardize an answer collection submitted from a browser interview (which may be specially encoded) into standard XML answers.
