Hi, I used this code for a survey

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">

$(document).ready(function(){

$('#question9769 .answer_cell_00SQ001 option[value=1]').text('No recurro');
$('#question9769 .answer_cell_00SQ001 option[value=2]').text('Arocena Gustavo');
$('#question9769 .answer_cell_00SQ001 option[value=3]').text('Aspra Manuel');
$('#question9769 .answer_cell_00SQ001 option[value=4]').text('Bravo Ricardo');
$('#question9769 .answer_cell_00SQ001 option[value=5]').text('Zalazar Martin');

$('#question9769 .answer_cell_00SQ002 option[value=1]').text('No recurro');
$('#question9769 .answer_cell_00SQ002 option[value=2]').text('Bravo Ricardo');
$('#question9769 .answer_cell_00SQ002 option[value=3]').text('Fernandez Flavio');
$('#question9769 .answer_cell_00SQ002 option[value=4]').text('Zalazar Martin');
$('#question9769 .answer_cell_00SQ002 option[value=5]').text('').hide();

Try this:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
 
	$(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
 
		$('#question{QID} .answer_cell_SQ001 option[value=1]').text('No recurro');
		$('#question{QID} .answer_cell_SQ001 option[value=2]').text('Arocena Gustavo');
		$('#question{QID} .answer_cell_SQ001 option[value=3]').text('Aspra Manuel');
		$('#question{QID} .answer_cell_SQ001 option[value=4]').text('Bravo Ricardo');
		$('#question{QID} .answer_cell_SQ001 option[value=5]').text('Zalazar Martin');
 
		$('#question{QID} .answer_cell_SQ002 option[value=1]').text('No recurro');
		$('#question{QID} .answer_cell_SQ002 option[value=2]').text('Bravo Ricardo');

Thank you very much tony, it works. But another question arises. Is there any way to put in the middle of those columns a column in which you can enter text?

If there was some kind of code that would allow me in one of those columns to add text, I would fix many problems

For that, you could extend this workaround for separate columns - www.limesurvey.org/forum/can-i-do-this-w...al-text-value#168857

I have imported the survey from that page with the code and I get the table without a column with text to add, what could have gone wrong?

Yes, that's why I said you would have to extend the workaround for different columns.

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
	$(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
		var thisQuestion = $('#question{QID}');
 
		// Insert selects

Hi,
I am sure you can find out by yourself.

In the javascript code you see
// Insert selects
		$('.answer-item.answer_cell_X001', thisQuestion).addClass('with-select').append('<select class="inserted-select form-control list-question-select">\
													<option value="">Please choose...</option>\
													<option value="1">Yes</option>\
													<option value="2">No</option>\
													<option value="3">Do not know</option>\
												</select>');
You see the X001 refers to the column code.

So just define your rows and columns and add the appropriate lines in the script as I did here:
$('.answer-item.answer_cell_X005', thisQuestion).addClass('with-select').append('<select class="inserted-select form-control list-question-select">\
													<option value="">Please choose...</option>\
													<option value="1">AAA</option>\
													<option value="2">BBB</option>\
													<option value="3">Do not know</option>\
												</select>'); 
		$('.answer-item.answer_cell_X006', thisQuestion).addClass('with-select').append('<select class="inserted-select form-control list-question-select">\
													<option value="">Please choose...</option>\
													<option value="1">AAA</option>\
													<option value="2">BBB</option>\
													<option value="3">Do not know</option>\
												</select>');

That is because you have introduced some white-spaces after the back-slashes - these are not allowed.

This workaround is for an array-text type, not array-numbers.

Can you provide a mockup of what you want?
