Form without database

Beginners question.

I have made simple form for product orders. Very pleased how it looks and works (including pricing math and all 😊). It is not linked to any database and has only one connection to Outlook. Reason for that it has no database, because it is not needed . Users feeds all necessary data and send it. Email works just fine but only problem that I don't know how to add form content to email.

Went through tons of discussions, but no success.

So is this even possible and if so, what is right path to get it work?

Thanks!
That was right subject. But on that video there is Excel database connection. But is that
necessary to get that html to work? Simply just all data from form to email.

No there doesn't need to be any underlying database connection. As long as you have data somewhere that it can use.

Technically you are using your email system as a database since it is fulfilling the same functions: Create, Retrieve, Update and Delete. Your form is the input and your records are the emails.
