Is there an ability to change the format of downloaded csv reports?  That is, can you download the numerical vs. actual answer values.  So yes=1, no=2.

Hi.

The csv export includes both the question titles AND the reporting values. It doesn't include the option labels per se unless the reporting value is the same as the option title.

I hope this helps.

No, that's not what I meant.  If you have a yes/no multiple choice question, do you have the option to export so that yes/no becomes 1/2 like below?

We don't have the ability to convert your data after the fact in the csv export from strings (yes, no) to numbers (1,2). However, Cheri was pointing out that when creating the survey, you can have the option title be 'yes' and 'no' while the reporting value (what is actually saved as their response), is 1 and 2, negating the need to convert the data.

Hope that clarifies it a bit more for you.
