How can I delete some of the data I have collected. I have to delete data that I collected while I was testing the survey. I don't want it to mix with the real data? also can I have a start date to a survey, just like there is an end date?

Hi there,  
Here is an article on deleting survey responses : https://community.surveysparrow.com/post/delete-survey-responses-5dfc9f883aa72f49c3715c33  
I am afraid, as of now we do not have an option to schedule the start date of the survey.  
Hope that helps! :)
