Share an Excel user form -do end users need Excel?

[1021557]

Hi,

Is it possible to create a distributable user form in Excel that end users can open and mail back to me without them necessarily having Excel on their PC. If not then would this work in MS Access?

Thanks

Hi 1021557,
Excel without Excel... My 5 cents: that sounds near impossible. With MS Access: that works without the full install of MS Access, but would require Access runtime, which can be installed with a basic installation of MS Office. But since there is no Excel, I assume there is no MS Office, so that option doesn't seem plausible. I don't know what kind of form you want people to fill in, but if it's simple data, try and have a look at google spreadsheet/forms, that only requires a browser and the answers of the respondents are neatly ordered in a spreadsheet.
Hope that helps,
Koen
