Hello Zhongzhong_Li,

Thank you for your fast response! 

For question 1, okay. I'm excited to wait for it! :)

For question 2, I try to duplicate the form. But, when I open in excel (from response tab), it only shows 4 default columns which are start time, completion time, email and name. I try to fill out the form, hoping that the other columns (I have 29 questions in total) will appear in the excel. I try to open in excel again and I can see the columns from my questions, but strangely, not in order. For example, I have these questions in my form: A, B, C, D. When I open the response in excel, the columns order change to: B,D,C,A. So I never copy the form because when I open the result in excel, the columns are not in order.

For now, it's still okay for me to create the forms for excel again every time I need it, but it would be really nice if I can just copy the form just like survey. It will save a lot of time :) Please kindly let us know if there's a way to copy the excel and its form (or the form and its excel).

 

 

Thanks!
