Hi, Can I use the tool "Regenerate question codes" for a survey that has answers already? Will that mix up the answers?
As a background:
I am pretty new with LimeSurvey and I am using it for scientific research. Despite some difficulties regarding the user interface I managed to create and activate a survey with LimeSurvey and had a good amount of answers to it. Now, when it is time to export and analyse the answers, I see that in exported files the answers are in different order than in the visual answer form sent for the respondents. I assume this happens because the question codes are not in correct order. I forgot to use the "Regenerate question codes" tool before activating the survey. So now I am wondering, what happens, if I regenerate question codes now? Will it mess up my data? I'll rather ask before doing something that cannot be reversed.
