Google-sheets – Link Google Form responses To Already Existing Google Spreadsheet Tab

google sheetsgoogle-forms

I have a Google Form. I had all of my Google Form responses linked to a specific tab in my Google Spreadsheet. Somehow my form responses were unlinked from my tab. When I go to re-link my form responses to my already existing tab it only gives me the option to create a new tab in my spreadsheet.

How do I simply re-link my Google Form responses to my already existing tab in my Google Spreadsheet?

You can NOT.
Google will always create a new sheet automatically.

But this is not actually an issue. Of course that depends on what your issue is:

1. What happens to my old answers?
They are copied over to the new sheet automatically.

2. But the sheet has a different name.
Just rename it to whatever you like.

3. What about the formulas I had in my old sheet?
Just copy those over manually.

4. I had the sheet pushing/pulling data to/from elsewhere.
Make manual adjustments so whatever you were doing, points to the new sheet.

I believe that covers it. If your issue is not in the above list, let us know.
