Hi, The survey I am working on askes participants about dates (births etc) and I would like to have a date picker (eg. a drop down calendar) where participants can select the date instead of having to type it. ---

Using a date picker for date-related questions is a great idea to improve your survey. Many survey platforms like SurveyMonkey and Google Forms offer this feature, making it easier for participants to select dates accurately. For visualizing survey data, especially Likert scale responses, ChartExpo is an excellent tool. It offers intuitive, powerful visualizations and is particularly effective with [Likert Charts](https://chartexpo.com/utmAction/MTYrMCt4bCtjZXhwbytGMDEr), helping you easily interpret data trends. ---
