The question file would have questions, wouldn't it? Why is the example you gave including possible answer choices in the question file? Shouldn't it just contain the questions? And the answer file would contain possible responses. And the output file contains the response given by the participant?

That doesn't make any sense.  Why wouldn't you want to have the potential answers in the same file as the questions?

The answer file should contain the answers people gave.  You can call it a "response file" if you like.

Input file = Questions

Output file = Answers  (as in the answers people gave)

OR call it

Input file = Questions  (easier to call it that then Question/Possible Answers)
Output file = Responses

I think you are confusing semantics with makes logical programming.

Maybe I should have called it the answer options file. Some answers are the same and some are different in different questionnaires. A response file would be generated at the end.

Then don't post anything. You do not need to respond.

The input files (i.e., the questionnaires) would be made in Excel and imported into Labview. If students wish to add a new questionnaire, it is easier for students to use Excel. They have trouble programming in Labview . The input (questionnaire file) and the output (response file) would have to be in Excel. I would also still want the analysis done in Labview. That's just me though. Other students would need an Excel output file if they don't know how to program in Labview.

So the goal is to have the questions in excel (for students) format for each questionnaire and have an "add new questionnaire" feature in Labview. The researcher can select which questionnaires to present and the order they would like to present them,

E.g.:

   Choose the questionnaires you would like to present and the order of presentation:

      handedness                      3

      noise exposure                 2

      gender identity                  5

      hearing health                   1

      mini-mental state              4

      etc...

Labview presents them in the requested order, then Labview analyzes the data for each questionnaire with the option of outputting the response data and/or analysis in excel format.
