==================
Hi, when I check the answers from the "Show answers" button I see a higher number of answers than the total answers I see in the summary, why? In practice I see 2159 response IDs, but in the summary the total is only 2152.

Can happen when respondents delete their response during the visit of your survey (if you allowed that via an link in your survey).

Great, I hadn't thought of this possibility. Thanks!
