Is there anyway that a Form can be set up to update comments in the comments section of smartsheet- I don't want to use a new column called Comments I want to be able to fill in the comments column- not sure how this is done of if this is possible.
Hi Phil,
This has been a request I submitted, dating back a year and half and there has been a lot of people who have signed on to needing this feature, but there has been no update on whether this will ever be an option. It is silly that we have to create a column to add comments that could go directly into the comments section.

We are in 2020. I'm not seeing the forms having the option to show all comments and allow comments to be updated. Any progress?
This option would simplify our workflow process. Eliminate the need to login the sheet to start the conversation. After it is started we work from the request updates process to add additional comments to the conversation.
Anyway we can make this view only for security purposes? We would like to prevent users from sending responses to other users by accident.
I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted. But is there a way that they can reply in the email of a comment that will then go to the specific sheet. This way they do not have access to the sheet, but can just comment through email with updates?
Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
