Answers.Body: <p>as far as I know you can not change the way an exported field is represented in the User Interface.
  What you could do is create a report of activities and export that report, perhaps you will then get the option to get the value.

Comments.Text: I'm not sure what version of Civi I am using, but I think a pretty current one. We just updated.  I'm not a programmer, just a user.   I would like to know how to export the Value of the data filed instead of the label is that is possible.  These are custom fields in an Activity.  I am doing a Find Activities, then exporting the data that way.
