Hi Davide,

Sorry, I just discovered your 2 month old post. Apparently, the feature
request submissions are not forwarded to me.

Anyway,

Ad 1) To do that you will have to go into the code. The participant form
is put together in a function "participant__form()" in
tagsets/participant.php. There you can add code to for a SSN input field.
TO validate, you would need to write a validation function for that, too,
probably using a regular expression testing for the format
"[0-9][0-9]-[0-9][0-9]-[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]". You would also need to add a
database column and amend the mysql INSERT and update queries. So all in
all: quite some effort. I am planning to have a more flexible participant
form in the next version, and also some tools to do financial session
accounting, but this next version has been kind of vaporware now for a
while, and I don't want to make any promises about when it is to be
expected ...

Ad 2) Right now there is no Excel export function, though that would be
actually easy to implement, as Excel understands HTML tables. However, you
could use the very convenient PHPMyAdmin software to directly run queries
against the database and save the result as an Excel file.

Hope this helps.
