Would like the ability to define order of fields/columns in submission data export to excel or csv file

    Hi!

    I want to define in what order the fields/columns comes from the most left side of the submissons, on the webpage, excel or csv file.

    I can find other people asking for the same thing I'm looking for.

     

    I will suggest this as an improvement of your system.

    I can see that you advice other to change the order in excel or try using google spreadsheet, but then you have to have a routine on that every time you download a file with submissions.

     

    I see if I change where the fields are placed in the form I can get them in the right order, but than the layout of the form is lost...

    So would it not be possible that all fields have a position value that can be defined, but as default it is the position of how it is placed on the form?

     

    If I have 13 fields from top to bottom of a form, and I want to have field 11th as the second field/column in my excel file, I change the position value of my field 11th to 2nd, and then from the second form field it will be pushed down to 3rd position and so on.

     

    Regards

    McQuinge
