Answer from a previous question as subquestion text

I am using Limesurvey version 2.0 and I would like to know if it is possible to use the answer from a prior Array (text) question as a subsequent subquestion in an Array (dropdown) and also an Array (single scale)?

For example (I’ve included a screen shot below), I have an array text question where respondents are asked to type in an organization name. I would like this organization to become the subquestion in two subsequent array questions on the same page, as well as an additional question later in the survey. Is this possible?

Yes, you can do this with expression manager. You have to check how you can access the value in the text question (the survey/question logic file usually helps with that).

Once you know what that answer code is, you can use it in expressions.

As they are on the same page, it can look a little strange when there hasn't been an answer yet. But I am sure there is some kind of code that can be used as a placeholder while the question hasn't been answered yet.
