From LimeSurvey Manual

This is a partial workaround that seems to work in 1.82-essentially, only use Excel on the part of the file that is the data:

  • Export a question similar to what you would like to reuse as .csv file
  • Open the CSV file in a rawtext editor
  • Copy the part that has the answers to Excel, and parse it with Text to Columns or equivalent.
  • Use the talent of Excel to allow pasting text in columns to paste in 20, 50, 100 answers, as you wish
  • Save the file as Excel CSV, which will likely have no quotes.
  • Open this file in the editor, and Select All, Copy
  • Go back to the file you opened with the rawtext editor
  • Paste over the answers there
  • Save AS, with a different name, maybe one that you can remember for reuse
  • Import this file.
