    Using Excel as a form that populates as you complete it based on your answers

    Hi All,

    I hope you are doing well, collectively!

    I just wanted to open a post about how one could leverage excel into a form that an end-user could complete with simple questions, primarily Y/N. Ideally, based on the users selection of Y or N additional questions would appear below the original question and so on and so forth. Is this something that could be done with excel? Something like this:

    Question 1 would be:

    Is this person a manager? (Y/N)
    After the end user selects their answer, a second question pops up/appears below the original question. After the complete that one, additional questions appear below.

    Is this doable?

    Open to any ideas Gurus!

    Thank you!
    RJC

    Hello,

    I'm afraid I know nothing about the coding you provided Ranman, if it isnt vlookups I'm a bit of a fool with excel...

    Zbor, I was not able to see anything update with your file. Is it possible to explain how I can create what you did on my side?

    Please let me know.

    Thanks All.

    record a macro
    click a cell, stop the macro. (this will create a vba module)
    edit the macro
    overwrite that text with the code I sent above.
    Edit the macro TakePoll and put in your questions.
