  • How to create data entry forms in Excel? In this tutorial, I show you how to easily make a data entry form in Microsoft Excel without VBA. Data entry forms can make adding data to an Excel spreadsheet much easier and with less mistakes. This can be great for databases containing addresses, customer information, or anything that requires data to be added to Excel. Let me know in the comments if you have any questions while you create data entry forms in Excel.

    2. Select all the fields then in the top meu select Insert then Table.
    3. In the Create Table menu select My table has headers and then select OK.
    4. Now right click the top menu in Excel and select Customize Ribbon.

      the tab part is just to get the forms button, its really not that complicated but all you need to do is right click on the ribbon to customize, then hit new group on the right (no need to rename) then select all commands on theleft side drop down and scroll donw to form and hit Add. once its in the new group hit ok. done.
