Hi everybody,

I created an evaluation form some time ago in Excel 2003. Originally it was
sent out to people after they had completed their training. It went out to
about 5-6 people so gathering the information was not a very huge task. Now
the form has been sent out to over a hundred people and I need to come up
with something easier to capture the data.
I used Forms-check boxes to answer the questions, then I had a comments area
beside each question and I used the Forms-Text Box with a scroll bar.
I am asking, is there an easier way to collect this data?
Cheers
Lynda
 
Hi Linda
Maybe this can help:
Each Check Box can be link to a cell, that will give you a "True" /" False"
reply that you can count.
To link them, right click on the CheckBox and Format Control, then look under
the Control Tab.

Hi
Each Check Box can be link to a cell, that will give you a "True" /" False"
reply that you can count.

I should have said; " That you can use a formula to count the "True" and "False"
eg: =COUNTIF(A2:A50,"True")

Thank you John. I realised after you posted your response that I had asked
basically the same question a couple of years ago. My problem now is that for
some reason when I go to the text box and then to properties it opens the
properties box but it is totally blank. Can you help me with this also?
 
Hi John,

Thank you for your help. I have managed to fix my problem with the text box,
so no need to worry about it.

Thank you so much. Cheers, Lynda
