# Analyze a Program Activity Excel Report

Understand the contents and structure of a program activity Excel report in PEARS.

Individual program activity Excel reports contain data from a single activity. This is different from [program activity exports](/engage/program-activities/export.md), which are run from the Program Activities list and include multiple activities with expanded details such as site information and session data.

**TIP:** Download the Excel report from the program activity detail page before performing your analysis. Click the **More** button at the top of the record and select **Download Excel Report**.
{% endhint %}

## Report Contents

A program activity Excel report contains three types of sheets:

### Export Details

Information about when the export was run and by whom, how many survey instruments are attached, and when the program activity was last updated. One sheet per file.

### Overview & Demographics

All details from the General Information section of the program activity, followed by custom field data and demographic totals when they have been entered. One sheet per export.

### Data Tabs

Raw survey response data as entered in PEARS. One sheet per attached survey instrument that has response data. Individual responses generate a separate row for each response; aggregate data lists each answer option with its response count.

**TIP:** Use the data tabs for further statistical analysis in external applications such as Excel or Google Sheets.
