Hello

I have a Form that collect comments. I'm trying to add the comments to excel cell using Update a Row but when i do that the new comment will overwrite the exciting comment is there a way to have Excel update a cell without changing the exciting value?

Thanks

    Hello Scott

    Yes. And i was able to figure it out by using the get row then save the comments in compose action then adding the compose plus the new comments from MS form in the update row. I'm still new to Power automate so i wasn't sure if there's an easier way to do that.

    Thanks

    I'm not sure that I understand.  You want to update a cell with a new value but want to save the existing value?

    Can you rely on version history in the SharePoint library?
