Gayl,

I don't have any custom reports handy and from what I've heard, its kind of
a bear to pull the data for reports (I think, specifically, from
multiple-choice questions).  The one institution I know using surveys, in
fact, exports the db to another db to do some data transformation and then
reports on it.

That being said, we are rolling out a new feature in the next version of
Mifos - Question Groups - which will deprecate some things in mifos like
surveys, custom fields, etc.  I would take a look at the feature (there
should be specs on mifos.org - and you can see it in action on the testing
server -  http://ci.mifos.org:8085/mifos/login.ftl) and consider waiting
until its released, at least from the reporting side**

R

** I believe the product team is developing tools which will help migrate
data over, so you could start using those features in Mifos, but the
reporting would only be temporary.
