How do I analyze results?

[lorif26651778]

Hi Adobe Community,

I am new to creating forms and was wondering if there is a way to analyze results? The overview tutorial stops at creating forms. I searched for posts on analysis, but didn't find any. Probably not looking for the right terminology.

Thank you,

Acrobat is not likely not the tool for it, but what kind of analysis do you want to perform?

Ideally I would like for people to be able to fill out individual forms and then import the results into my ACT! database. If I could export results into excel or a csv file I could import them. I would like to trend things such as how many people are using a certain type of sensor? The information will help customer support when people call with questions or problems. They could go to a pdf record stored in a directory, but a relational database is easier.

You can merge the results of multiple forms to a CSV file very easily. In Acrobat XI it's under Tools - Forms - More Form Options - Merge Data Files into Spreadsheet...
