Description

When tracker data with checkbox field is exported as a csv file the checkbox data is displayed as either y or n - just as it in the DB

However if this same data is re-imported any checkbox data with a 'y' is not set properly and is actually set to 'n' which will inadvertently corrupt existing data

If the spreadsheet data is manually update to change y into 1 then it is correctly interpreted as a y

I've rated this as a 10 for importance even though there is this workaround because of the data corruption that can occur if you do not know about the problem

This is being reported as 12.x bug but I suspect it also exists in 13.x and trunk - but not tested there

Solution

r52554 in 13.x? (will backport to 12.x when tested)

I'm guessing this issue has been fixed so I am closing this report. Please re-open if still any issues.
