    export to csv doesn't preserve field order?

    When exporting Contour form entires the columns are ordered alphabetically.  This disassociates information especially for forms which have numerous fields.

    Is there no way to have the output to CSV match the field order as displayed on the web page, which is the same as displayed in the Entries view of Contour?

    To answer my own question; there was this from last year: http://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-pro/contour/28527-Ordering-form-entry-results-in-Contour which says to edit /umbraco/plugins/umbracocontour/xslt/excell.xslt

    It's actually excel.xslt and what you need to do is to comment out the two instances of

    <xsl:sort select="caption" order="ascending"/>

    like this:

    <!-- <xsl:sort select="caption" order="ascending"/> -->
