Long list with different code for answer option was created by Salini
Hi,
I have to upload a long list of answer options (more than 400) where the codes are not continuous.
Is it possible to do it using quick add? Example as below:
26 Belle Vue
27 Camp Creoles
28 La Valette
44 Barachois
45 Flic en Flac
46 Morc. Anna
47 Palmyre
67 Cite Tamarin
68 La Mivoie
69 Magenta
70 Tamarin
71 Yemen
72 Camp Benoit
Thanks for your help,
Salini

That the codes are "not continuous" is no problem.
The meaning of the word "stable" for users

Wouldn't it be easier to try it? You didn't mention the LimeSurvey version you use. The amount of data you paste might hit a limit in the server configuration.Salini wrote: Is it possible to do it using quick add?

Hi Jelo,
Thank you for replying to my issue.
I'm using Version 2.72.3+171020.
Do you know how to use the Quick Add to upload my labels along the my codes instead of Limesurvey attributing a continuous codes?
Thanks,
Salini

You need to use a separator. If you have more than one language you need additional columns.
Take a look at this old thread to get an impression.

You will need to test different separators. I no longer have such an old LimeSurvey version running. LS3 and LS4 is under development.
Try pasting with ";"
26;Belle Vue
27;Camp Creoles
or with a TAB separator.
If you have found a working separator prepare a list via a spreadsheet tool (e.g. Excel).

Attaching an Excelfile here won't help either.Salini wrote: Unfortunately it not working.

Hi Jelo,
Thanks a lot. It's working. We need to add semicolon at the end also.
26;Belle Vue;
27;Camp Creoles;
Cheers,
Salini

Actually, copy and paste directly from Excel usually works without a problem.
