[dba-Tech] Simple online entry form solution

[Susan Harkins]

I saw that. 

I hate to sound like one of those people that keeps making excuses... because I really do appreciate all the suggestions. It might be a good option. 

I know this is going to sound like a rookie question because of course, that's what I am in this respect -- where does that HTML file go? How to users access it? 

Also, I'd rather not pay for a converter, but I might take advantage of a free trial and if it's the best way to go, I will. Free trials are grand! 😊

Hi Susan

I haven't tried, but this page mentions dropdowns:

Emne: [dba-Tech] Simple online entry form solution

I'm currently looking for a very simple way to solicit data from very unsavvy users. I have OneDrive for Business but I've found Excel Online Forms very limited. I need to limit responses using dropdowns. Also, I can't figure out how to edit a form once I've saved and shared it. 

Or either of these possible? 

I'm also looking at Googles Spreadsheet. I've got a script that will let me create a form based on the sheet, but again, I need populated dropdowns -- and I don't know if the form will pick up on those. I haven't tried yet. 

The 365 Excel Online Form would probably be the easiest and quickest route for me if I can generate dropdowns and edit the forms as needed. 

Looking for suggestions. Thanks!

Susan H.
