Quick translation and export in another language was created by dspaan
Hi all,
I have a Dutch survey which i translated into English with the quick translation option. But when i make an export to Excel with full answers it still shows them in Dutch. Is there a way to export the answers in English?

I don't really understand the question. Answers are always exported as given by the respondents, so no auto translate dutch answers to english answers and visa versa. Also the export function offers the possibility to export full question as headers, and then you can even select one of the languages in which the questionnaire was available (see screenshot, in Dutch, 'taal exporteren', LS 2.06+ Build 160129).
Or are you are talking about exporting the questionnaire itself? When you export a survey, it exports it always in all languages in which the questionnaire was created.

Hey Coen, i think you've understood my question. Thanks to your screenshot i now know i don't have the option to select the language when exporting the responses (with full answers). I guess i have to upgrade my Limesurvey version, currently running Version 2.00+ Build 130406

I suggest you try both 2.06 and 2.5 in a test environment, as there are some differences - a lot on the UI-side - and downgrading from 2.5 to 2.06 is not possible.

You can downgrade from 2.5 to 2.06(lts or not) with a manual install : i test it.

I already tried a manual upgrade but it wasn't working because it seems the newer version needs a newer version of MySQL. How can i find out in which version that export language was introduced? Maybe i can do a minor version upgrade without having to do an upgrade of MySQL.
Btw if i do upgrade MySQL i will do that in a virtual machine first. Since this install is running a PBX server and i can't risk any dbase problems.
