How to create a poll questionnaire ?

I don't understand how to create a questionnaire for a poll as the form does not fit with the content of a standard questionnaire

Hi, I just subscribed to try out YACS to see whether it fits my demands for a small website & CMS for people without prior coding knowledge. I'm not a geek, and the members of the association that will use it even less! So please, understand my way of asking questions.

My question: I was fascinated in seeing the polling function. Using a questionnaire to query visitors is something really useful. So, I tried to create a poll but immediately ran into difficulties. Normally, if you develop a questionnaire through a form you have an entry for a question, another for answer items or for free text if you don't provide closed answer possibilities. In YACS I don't see how I can create such structure.

Can you give me a link where to find an explanation of the meaning of the existing entries:

where is the entry for the text asking the question? - answers = seems evident - count = ?

Another question concerning polling: How do you save the information you get through the polling questionnaire? Is there the possibility that I can use to further analyse it? Is this a plaintext file, comma-delimited, some other format?

Thanks for some hints, Frank
