Gayl, I don't have any custom reports handy and from what I've heard, its kind of a bear to pull the data for reports (I think, specifically, from multiple-choice questions). The one institution I know using surveys, in fact, exports the db to another db to do some data transformation and then reports on it.
That being said, we are rolling out a new feature in the next version of Mifos - Question Groups - which will deprecate some things in mifos like surveys, custom fields, etc. I would take a look at the feature (there should be specs on mifos.org - and you can see it in action on the testing server - http://ci.mifos.org:8085/mifos/login.ftl) and consider waiting until its released, at least from the reporting side** R ** I believe the product team is developing tools which will help migrate data over, so you could start using those features in Mifos, but the reporting would only be temporary.
