==================
Hello.
I have a survey with one Ranking type question.
It contains 71 choices.
As I understand from the information I found online, Limesurvey should natively create a separate database column for each rank position rather than a single combined text string, but in my case all of the answer codes are stored in a single column, each rounded by " and separated by comma.
Is it by design or am I missing some configuration?
I would like to have them separated in single columns.
Thanks.
