I had errors with some data (with hidden controls), I exported the data and
did the update to values. But after the update completed and the system
give me the data updated successfully, I exported the data but old values
appears not the new values?!.
Shall I did any update to export the new values or what/how?
Were you using the case importer? Did you include the old data's case IDs
in your Excel file when you imported it?
Unfortunately you can't use the case importer to change the values of any
forms.
Thanks,

I used case importer by following this guide https://help.commcarehq.org/display/commcarepublic/Updating+Cases+-+Setup+Excel+File.
Yep I have caseid in my Excel sheet and I used as an ID to update the cases
hidden values and the system give me a message that the cases updated. But
the old values are still exported when I exporting the cases data.
I do not understand your point?! sorry could you please give me more
explanation?
Thanks

Can you report an issue from your project space and attach the file you
used? We can try look at what was going on to debug this further.
