View Row as web form?
Comments
-
If you switch to card view you have a form to update the information..

My understanding is card view lanes are out of dropdown lists. I don't have drop down lists :-( But this got me thinking. I added a column with a single drop down list value to all the rows. Not ideal but works. Thanks!
My next question: is there a way I can be selective about which columns are available in the card web-form view?

by all means continue your exploration of Cardview but to answer you original question...
When you use the Edit Row Function in a sheet, you do infact get a Form to view the sheet vertically which is easier than editing a sheet left to right as a spreadsheet.
If the Editor is not shared to the sheet, send them an update request and that add the extra control of only letting them see and edit the columns you want them to see/edit.
Both ways give you a nice access to a form to fill out.
Hope that Helps

Good call Richard! In regards to the columns content in the form I believe it will always include everything. If you utilized the update request feature this allows you to pick and choose which columns require updating..here is a link on update request functionality..

Thanks Richard! I guess, I should have explored all right click options by actually clicking them :-)
W.r.t to selecting columns in Update Request, can we save the selection for a sheet? I have 35 columns and ideally I would like to send 10 of these but I don't want to hide them in the actual sheet.

Hello Rohit—we don't have a way to preserve the update request options chosen for further update requests that you schedule, but I'll add your vote for this to our enhancement request list for further consideration.
