1) List-Based Info-Path Form: Here you can edit the new item, view, 
and edit form in SharePoint 2010. This is typically activated from the 
ribbon by click "Edit in InfoPath". Due to all the rules and 
functionality surrounding the 'survey list', customing
 the form in InfoPath is not supported. You can confirm this by going to
 the survey list in SharePoint Designer 2010 and clicking the button 
"Design in Infopath". Therefore you can attempt to create a single level
 survey using a custom list instead of a survey
 list. You can edit the new item form using InfoPath for any format that
 best meets the needs of your end users.
2) Document-Based InfoPath: If a simple, single level form is not 
robust enough, then using a List-Basd infopath form will not work. If 
you need more than a change to the 'look and feel' and require robust 
functionality, then you can looks toward a document-based
 infopath form. A document-based infopath form is stored in a "Form 
Library". It can be based on a content type or on indepedent values. 
Instead of editing the look of a list form, the form library saves the 
infopath XML file to the library. That means you
 can do more with the templte of the form library. We included rules, 
validation, and custom C# coding in our infopath form libraries, while 
keeping them all "browser enabled". Browser-enabled means you don't have
 to open InfoPAth on the desktop to view and
 interact with the infopath form.
To meet you reporting requirements, all of the information would have
 in a survey can be uploaded to SharePoint with either method above. 
DBInfoPath requires specifying which values to pass into the library if 
you want to leveraging them in the form library.
 You can use excel, performancepoint, KPIs, views, filters, and sorting 
to give you the reports you are looking for an a quick and easy 
solution.
We can't modify survey over InfoPath.
