I created an account myself and gave it a try. You -can- export ineither an excel sheet or csv through: Surveys >  [name of survey]  >Analyze > Export.

As said, the same is possible at the Survs thing, even linecontinuations work I think. Below is an sample export of a quicksurvey I created and filled in myself. Looks pretty parsable to me :).

I was hoping you would ask that question as I was trying to tellsomeone that this survs thing is quite nice, actually.The only downside so far is that you cannot prepare a survey offlineand then upload it to the site.I'm sure that won't be a problem though."

Agreed, it would be nice to have something like this. Especially whenadding a bunch of options. It doesn't seem that Survs allows you tocreate the Surveys offline, but if it doesn'tw ork at survey.net.nzanyway...?
