Hi Jim,

I really don't know much about these technologies. I just googled "microsoft forms timesheet template" and got a lot of hits. I'm sure there is a Forms group in  https://answers.microsoft.com/ that might be of help.

Hi Duane,

So i would be able to enter the hours on the timesheets (form) after emailing them out? not everyone has the ability to open the form. they do not have a computer so the supervisor enters the hours for each day and then has the employee sign the timesheet

Hi Jim,

I don't think I would use Access to do this. There are a number of other options like MS Forms and Sharepoint lists. Our office uses a Sharepoint list for entering our travel plans. I can't edit anyone's but mine.

Hello All,

We are trying to send out timesheets now that we are stuck at home. But the VP wants them to be fillable forms so that they can fill out hours and then sign and return. We have looked everywhere and are unable to get data into the template. Is there a way to do that? I did find a site that stated that it cannot be done, but where there is a cannot be done, there is a can be done. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You
Jim Wagner
