Only use this if you have the scoring Key conveniently in data-record format.
Instructs where to find the KEYn= information.
KEYFROM=0
KEY1= through KEY99=, if used, are before &END.
KEYFROM=1
KEY1 information follows after &END, but before the item names. The key is formatted exactly like a data record. It is helpful to place the name of the key, e.g. "KEY1=", where the person name would usually go, for reference.
KEYFROM=n
KEY1=, then KEY2=, and so on up to KEYn= (where n is a number up to 99) follow &END, but placed before the item names. Each key is formatted exactly like a data record. It is helpful to place the name of the key, e.g. "KEY2=", where the person name would usually go.
Example: KEY1 and KEY2 information are to follow directly after &END
NAME1=1 start of person-id (the standard)
ITEM1=10 start of response string
NI=7 number of items
CODES=abcd valid codes
KEYFROM=2 two keys in data record format
&END
KEY1=****bacddba keys formatted as data
