Tutorial
Collecting Data using
Google Docs Forms
Have you ever wanted
to invite a group of people
to respond to questions via email?
Do you wish that all the replies could
automatically be
assembled into a spreadsheet format, so
you didn’t have to
copy and paste everything into a format
that was useful
to you? Through Google Docs, you can easily create a
questionnaire
or survey, and then invite others to
respond.
All responses are assembled automatically
into a Google Docs spreadsheet,
which you can save to your computer as Excel spreadsheet.
