How do I fully delete Form responses?
HUnderhill go to View Responses, select the response you want to delete, click the 3 dots over on the right and select Delete response. That will permanently delete the response and also delete it from the underlying spreadsheet.

That doesn't seem to have worked for me - please see the screen shots below. I'm stumped!

HUnderhill RobElliott The same goes for me - we have to delete the response both in Forms and in the underlying spreadsheet.

EliseLarsen HUnderhill sorry I really can't explain why you need to do that but I don't. As you'll see from the attached video when I delete response 23 from within the form it also deletes response 23 from the spreadsheet.

Hi Rob,
Thank you for taking the time to look into this again and make the video. Unfortunately for me when I delete a response the line is still in the spreadsheet. Perhaps I have a different version? I am just going to accept this is the way it has to be (for me) and maybe next time I need to create a new form I will be able to do it differently. Thanks again for all your help.
