Variable name conflicts might exist if you are attempting to insert or paste objects from another project or a library object that might contain several associated variables. If conflicts are encountered, you will be prompted whether to automatically create new variables before adding them to the project, automatically use the existing variables, or view the conflicting names and individually select the new variable names. For more information, see Resolving variable name conflicts. |
To change the associated variable name of question:
Double-click the 
graphic of the question you want to change in the Project Explorer. Alternatively, you can right-click the graphic of the question and click Properties. The Properties ribbon is displayed.
Specify the associated variable name in the Variable field. This name must be unique to all existing variable names. Variable names cannot contain spaces or special characters. The variable will be used to store the user’s answer to the question. It can be accessed from anywhere in the project.
