Radio Button names are lost when merging into spreadsheet

I've created a .pdf form which includes many types of dropdown menus, text boxes,  radio buttons, etc..

All the non-radio buttons export properly to the 'report.csv' file when using  Forms>Manage Form Data>Merge Data Files into Spreadsheet

For example, I have a customer field that comes accross as filename.customer[0] in the 'report.csv' file.

However, all the radiobuttons come accross as filename.RadioButtonList[#] so I don't know which radio button is being referred to - the name is lost.

In the liveCycleDesigner, I've given all the radio buttons names, but they don't get exported to the 'report.csv' file.

What can I do so the radio button names appear in the 'report.csv' file when I merge form data?

I'm using Live Cycle 8.2

I had the same problem; hopefully my solution will be of help to anyone searching this problem via a search engine.

Individual radio buttons cannot be named (only the overal exclusion group can be named) or else rawValues will not export.
