To be able to import your partial results they would have to follow the exact structure and format like in Limesurvey and I guess this would be a lot of work.

If you are thinking about collecting new data, I would use Limesurvey just as normal and then export the results from both databases and bring them together by formating the tables correctly.

Where do the data in the MySQL database come from?

Help us to help you!
  • Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
  • Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).
