The tutorial is good. But I am making a different data base. If you can show how you do the formula with (ID#,Name,Mobile#,Date Start and Date End. I will highly appreciate. You explain everything cleary and I learned. 😊 Except for the formula, as I have zero knowledge on this. 😅
Excellent class! Very well explained step by step. Congratulations !

Hi again Eli. Also, something I would like to have more insight about is the following line: var datasheet = form.getRange("D5:D5").getValues()[0][0] It seams to me that "D5:D5" is redundant, since it is just one cell you are reference to. Wouldn't be just "D5" enough? Also using getValues()[0][0] is confusing for me because you are just taking one cell's value alone, why then load an array? Thank you so much for any input on this. Appreciate all your work.
Hi Eli. Nice video. I follow all of your example writing all of the code my self. Then I tested the code to see if it works and have to make some adjustments for the code to work. Here are my findings: First, I have to delete the var SEARCH_COL_IDX = 0 and var RETURN_COL_IDX = 0 variables at the begining of the updateData function, because they where reseting those variables before the function could use them as a reference. After that, the updateData function worked just fine. The other change has to do with the sheet names arrays. I store the array on a variable named sheets, then replace that in the code as follows: sheets.forEach(function(s) ... and again, both functions are working just fine. Finaly, an anoying thing that I could not fix is that you must exit all of the cells in order for the updateData, searchStr and submit functions to be able to safe and/or uspdate all of the fields. If the cursor is on one of the cells, that cell won't be added or updated on the sheet. Thank you so much and hope this helps to make a more robust form.
Do this to solve your 'annoying thing':
After defining the variable'form' add this line of code below it:
form.getRange('A1').activate();
You can activate any cell according to your convenience
Thanks for the video. I was able to create one data entry form with the help of your video. However; I face a challenge that when multiple users are working on this form, data are getting collapsed which means, while one person entering the data, another person may reset his form from his end which results in clearing the first persons data as well. What is the workaround for this?
Thanks .
Useful Video.
Glad you think so!
Thanks
No problem
