I can't believe this isn't asked more often...any way of using a Form to populate data into a new column, rather than a new row?
Apologies if this has been addressed previously.
Hi Chad,
Unfortunately, it's not possible as far as I know to use forms for anything else than rows.
What is your use case? How would you like to use it?
I hope this helps you!
Have a fantastic day!
Best,

Happy to help!

Ideally, leadership should be able to view the…
