Hello,

 

When working with Microsoft forms, I need to be able to have the answers submitted through microsoft forms seperated in to separate files and by date.   

 

For example:   Jim submit a form on November 5th, and checks that his T-Shift size is Large.   The data from that entry is plugged into the 5th cell of an excel sheet. (Due to it being the 5th day of the month)    Then, Jim checks that he likes the color black.  That entry is placed in a SECOND xcel sheet in the 5th cell.   Jim decides a day later he wants another shirt, so he fills out a second form on Nov 6th for a Large Gray shirt.  The size data from form #2 is placed in the 6th cell of sheet 1, and the color data is placed in the 6th cell of sheet 2.   So on and so forth.

 

Pleasae advise.

 

Thank you!

    Hi @Riverside,

     

    I may not fully understand your scenario, but I will explain how the flow would work based on my understanding.

     

    For Microsoft Forms, if you would like to record the User Name and the submit date, then there should be User Name and the Date configured in the Form question,

    Besides, in order to insert data into Excel, we need format the data within the Excel sheet into an Excel table, and if you would like to save Form response into different Excel tables, you need to add another Excel Insert Row action.

    The structure should be as below:
