Hi:I saw a thread you posted here for your reference: http://forums.technet.microsoft.com/en-US/sharepointadmin/thread/bc6de61d-8c29-4d84-b890-56bf8c1bcaa9/ Because SharePoint use Microsoft Office Excel Web Query File (.iqy) to maintain the connection between SharePoint List and Excel. You can modify the connection properties to display different views of a list and export the data you want. Here are the detailed steps about your issue: 1. Add a web part which refers to your survey. 2. Modify the web part, and change the Selected View to All Responses. 3. Click Edit the current view, check the column you want to export. 4. In the URL box of IE, you will find the View GUID in the URL. in my test, it looks like: http://yoursite/_layouts/viewedit.aspx?List=%7B6B5B2D7B%2DD5C0%2D4CFF%2DAB8D%2D506EAC3CE85E%7D&View=%7B95A38984%2D1F14%2D4DA0%2DA282%2DEF6556E0F091%7D&Source=http%3A%2F%2F146189m1%2Fsurvey%2Fdefault%2Easpx%3FPageView%3DShared In this sample, the View GUID is {95A38984-1F14-4DA0-A282-EF6556E0F091}. (The relationships between symbols and their meanings: %7B = {; %7D = }; %2D = - ) 5. Click the Export to Spreadsheet in Action menu of the survey web part and open the ovssrv.iqy in the Excel. 6. In the Definition tab of Connection properties, replace the VIEWGUID with the GUID you got from Step 4. Save and exit. 7. If you don't know how to operate with Excel GUI, you can click the Export to Spreadsheet in Action menu of the survey web part and save the ovssrv.iqy to the local drive. 8. Open the owssrv.iqy with Notepad and replace the GUID with the GUID you got in Step 4. In my test, it looks like below: WEB 1 http://site/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?XMLDATA=1&List={6B5B2D7B-D5C0-4CFF-AB8D-506EAC3CE85E}&View={95A38984-1F14-4DA0-A282-EF6556E0F091}&RowLimit=0&RootFolder=%2fsurvey%2fLists%2f3630115Survey Selection={6B5B2D7B-D5C0-4CFF-AB8D-506EAC3CE85E}-{95A38984-1F14-4DA0-A282-EF6556E0F091}EditWebPage= Formatting=None PreFormattedTextToColumns=True ConsecutiveDelimitersAsOne=True SingleBlockTextImport=False DisableDateRecognition=False DisableRedirections=False SharePointApplication=http://site/_vti_bin SharePointListView={95A38984-1F14-4DA0-A282-EF6556E0F091} SharePointListName={6B5B2D7B-D5C0-4CFF-AB8D-506EAC3CE85E} RootFolder=/survey/Lists/3630115Survey Hope the information can be helpful. -lambert

Fantastic Post! I thought it might be helpful to add an image of where you can find the VIEWGUID in excel. From SharePoint(on your list/survey) choose Actions > Export to Spreadsheet > Open > (enable) The rest is below in the screen shot

Note the new data will show up to the right of the old data you had. After that all you have to do is format the "Modified" coulmn so the numbers display as dates. :)
