Duplicate sheet/form/automation

Hello,

I developed a form to submit data. There is of course a sheet and I also defined some automation.

The form has all the labels in Italian and I read that there is not an easy way to dynamically change the labels in different languages depending on a selection at the beginning of the form.

I therefore want to make a copy of everything and just do the label translation. Is there an easy way to do that. I would really hate to rebuild from scratch everything for each language.


Thanks

Regards

  • Hello Andrée,

    thanks for the answer. I tried it already, but when I go in the duplicated copy and I change for example a dropdown menu list, it changes also the original.

    For example in the original form I have a selection asking "who are you" with 4 possible choices (agente, cliente, area manager, ufficio), if in the duplicated copy I change the 4 choices to : sales agent, customer, area manager, headquarter) also the original form is changed. and I don't want that.

    Regards

    Happy to help!

    You would have to add specific columns for the different languages or have them on separate sheets.

    Make sense?

  • Hello Andrèe,

    thanks, it is clear that I need to have separate sheets and this brings me to my original question.

    Is there an easy way to copy everything without building it from scratch?

    Thanks
