Using Google Forms with Zoho Creator
I have a client that has created an extensive Google Form, with many fields consisting of radio buttons or drop boxes. Currently the data goes to an Excel spreadsheet, but I have convinced them to use Zoho Creator instead. My question is whether i can use their existing Google Form and have the data go into a Zoho Creator database. Would appreciate any feedback on this. Thanks, David
Forms that contain Subforms will not save on Edit
I have contacted Zoho by phone and email regarding this issue, but still have not received a response (despite having an Enterprise subscription!). When I try to Edit a form that contains a sub form, i get the error message "Invalid Entries found. Please correct and submit again."

I am struggling with how to upload a file through editing a record from an html page. I have a page called: Driver Dashboard.

Populate subform field from On Add Row event does not work unless value is selected manually
1. I have a form, MyMainForm that contains a subform MySubForm. 2. The lookup field, Application_Number_Text in MySubForm is a dropdown. 3. A script in the MySubForm's On Add Row event populates the Lookup field in MySubForm field: row.Application_Number_Text = [blah blah blah] 4. When I add a subform record, the Application_Number_Text field appears to be filled. 5. When I try to save the subform row, I receive an error.
