Blank rows between form submissions - preventing auto fill formulas

Kelly Kindred

Hi,

Has anyone experienced this? We use forms to capture information when doing peer reviews. Sometimes when the form submission is completed the sheet has inserted a blank row (or several rows) between the newly submitted form and the previous entry.

This does not occur every time but I cannot ascertain why blank rows would be added between submissions? Users only access the form and not the sheet so this does not appear to be the issue.

We rely on approx. 75 formulas in the sheet so having blank rows prevents the formula auto-fill from working.

Look forward to your feedback. Thanks in advance.

Hi @Kelly Kindred

Strange!

If possible, I’d recommend using Column Formulas instead because then the empty rows wouldn't be an issue.

Would that work?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!
