    Hi,

     

    I'm trying to figure out how to assign shorter names to certain questions in my form to make them more digestable in a report.

    For example, I have the following question in my form:

     

    Would you be comfortable having a follow-up call in English?

     

    Comfortable with a call in English Might be able to do a call in English, but would prefer a call in my language Not able to have a call in English

     

     

    ... but in my report I would prefer it to show up as "English?" -> (Yes/Maybe/No).

     

    How can I go about doing this?

     

    Thanks for your help!

     

    Michael

    Hi,

    The field labels are forwarded to reports as they are in the form.  There is not currently a way to edit the format of the output to reports.  Using shortened labels along with sub-labels, hint text pop-ups or inline hint text to supplement the shortened label would be your best bet:
