Hi Joel2275
There's currently no direct way to get the result in this way.
However, you could try instead to use Microsoft Flow and when a new form is submitted, to have the results emailed to you (see my template below as an example).
Step 1 - Use this to retrieve the submitted forms info.
Step 2 - Using Outlook - Send an email (V2), you can specify yourself as the recipient and then populate the Body with the headers and (green) form attributes.
Would save you having to actually hunt for the result in Forms as it's sent directly to your inbox.
Hope that makes sense?
Cheers

Hi Joel2275
Yes, the outputs will likely be meaningless without headers.
And as RobElliott has shown, you can also format the email to present a particular format which is handy when you want to see things in certain ways.
I would suggest having a play with the email option, I suspect it's the best way for you to resolve your issue.
Tag us in if you have any issues and we can help you navigate it, but I think you'll be alright!
Cheers and best wishes

Hi Damien,
I've been playing around with the email option as you suggested and have gotten it to work. The responses are now being directly attached to the email which is working fantastic for me. Thank you. Damien_Rosario
