MS Forms specific answer options based on previous question response
RobElliott thanks, can you give me some pointers on how to do this? I'm not sure how to set it up properly, would it be a new question for each option in question 1?
_ChadC2020 yep, give me half an hour, I need to rush to the store (avoiding the Coronavirus police on the roundabout) to get a bottle of wine. Emergency supplies.

- Did anyone manage to resolve this? (Not just a branching question, but populating a follow-up question with the responses from a previous multiple choice question)
Cate_Shaw you can't populate a follow-up question with the response from a previous question, it's just no do-able.

RobElliott I have tried several times to setup branching but clearly I am doing something wrong. I have Q1. with 3 multiple choice answers, which I then add branching. For example, if user selects first multiple choice then I want it to go to Q2, if they select 2nd multiple choice, it would go to Q3, etc. But what's happening is if they select the 1st option, then Q2, 3 & 4 are displayed. If they select the 2nd option, then Q3 & 4 are displayed and when they select the 3rd option Q4 is displayed. I'm doing something wrong but can't figure out exactly what.
Hi stephmiddle
Your question is a bit dated, I'm writing this for future reference.
To reach what you want, you need to add to questions 5, 6, and 7 a branching that says "Go to End of Form" :
That way, you will only see one question, depending on your choice.
Branching works like a BASIC GOTO command : you're moved to your destination, then you continue from there. Unless there is another GOTO that moves you somewhere else.
