Duplicate survey feature  
Written by fingerprn the 3 Feb 10 at 22:12. Related project: 1.x all. Implemented
I use the same survey, except for a few small changes, with different groups of people. I'd like the ability to just click a button and copy a survey, including questions, layout, etc., without needing to use the import/export feature.

Selected solution (#1): Copy survey button
Written by fingerprn the 3 Feb 10 at 22:12.
Right next to the Export Survey Structure button, add a Copy Survey button. When you click on it, it asks for a new survey name. Click on that and it creates an exact duplicate (except the survey name) of the current survey structure and design. From there, you can open the new "inactive" survey and make any necessary changes.

Add export LimeSurvey results to SAS.  
Written by mga the 3 Feb 10 at 18:43. Related project: 2.x all. New
SAS is a powerful statistics application that's pretty broadly used. LimeSurvey already supports exporting results to R and SPSS, which are good packages, but many of our users prefer to use SAS.

We'd like to see support for exporting LimeSurvey data into a format SAS can use, as has been done for SPSS and R.

Solution #1: Add export option for SAS
Written by mga the 3 Feb 10 at 18:43.
As was done for R and SPSS, add an export option for SAS.

SAS can import CSV if needed, but our users are asking for something that's easier - like they see for SPSS in LimeSurvey.

SAS can read SPSS files if need be, so I guess that's another option:

though it would be nice to be able to export directly in SAS format.
