There are some useful templates now in Google docs which make setting these up really easy;

I was so thrilled to find out I could do an online survey with google docs but I was quite disappointed to find out that after I submitted a response to the survey as a test, I could not longer delete that entry. I managed to delete it from the spreadsheet but not the summary, which meant that it would always be part of the survey results if I decided to go ahead with it. There is no flexibility in google docs on that and I would not recommend it.

With the latest version of Google Docs there is a separate tab for generating a new form. After clicking on “New” you need to click on “Form” and not “Spreadsheet”

it’s unfourtunate that you can NOT publish it and invite others ( other than people in your e-mail list) to fill it out! YOU HAVE TO SEND IT BY E-MAIL to get something back!

I’ve been eying this functionality for a few months. Today, now that I finally want to use it, I can’t find it. It appears that the whole Docs interface has changed in the last few days. There’s a new blue button: Share. When I click on Share -> Share with others, I see the Invite People and then the radio buttons below, but “to fill out a form” is not there. What’s going on?

Thank you so much for letting me know this information. I wanted to create an Online Evaluation form for a forthcoming workshop. While struggled to find a way to do this, this news came as a boon. Thanks to Google again!

Bovenstaande tekst is niet bepaald geslaagd Nederlands.
Waarschijnlijk door middel van een vertaalprogramma samengesteld?
