    <p>I'm trying to do something like <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2128367/scripting-a-google-docs-form-submission">this post</a> but with Excel VBA. I would like to submit a response on a google docs form each time a button is pressed on an Excel add-in. The addin will be an XLA file and written in VBA. </p> <p>I want to be able to collect what features the users are using. If someone has a better solution, I'm open.</p> <p>---Edit---</p> <p><a href="http://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?hl=en&amp;pli=1&amp;formkey=dHFTMzkwR2RpY2tzSUNnbVhIcDN3WWc6MA" rel="nofollow noreferrer">This</a> is the form I am trying to write to (excerpt of the code for one of the fields.)</p> <pre><code>&lt;div class="errorbox-good"&gt; &lt;div class="ss-item ss-item-required ss-text"&gt; &lt;div class="ss-form-entry"&gt; &lt;label for="entry_0" class="ss-q-title"&gt; UserName &lt;span class="ss-required-asterisk"&gt;*&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/label&gt; &lt;label for="entry_0" class="ss-q-help"&gt;&lt;/label&gt; &lt;input type="text" id="entry_0" class="ss-q-short" value="" name="entry.0.single"&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>--EDIT 2-- This is what I've tried so far, but it is still not working. I am getting an error on the line that says ".UserName.Value = Environ("username")" I suspect it is because it is not finding the item .username.</p> <pre><code>Private Sub GoogleForm() Dim ie As Object Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application") On Error GoTo errHandler With ie .navigate "http://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?hl=en&amp;cfg=true&amp;formkey=dHFTMzkwR2RpY2tzSUNnbVhIcDN3WWc6MA" Do While .busy: DoEvents: Loop Do While .ReadyState &lt;&gt; 4: DoEvents: Loop With .document.Forms(1) 'Username .UserName.Value = Environ("username") 'Key .Key.Value = "00qwe-12ckd" .submit End With Do While Not CBool(InStrB(1, .document.URL, _ "cp_search_response-e.asp")) DoEvents Loop Do While .busy: DoEvents: Loop Do While .ReadyState &lt;&gt; 4: DoEvents: Loop MsgBox .document.all.tags("table").Item(11).Rows(1).Cells(7).innerText End With Exit Sub errHandler: ie.Quit: Set ie = Nothing End Sub </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
