Ok thanks, off to seek a higher level of technical advice. 
kwalka: if you go to the 'Tools' menu on the open spreadsheet, I believe you can create a form for others to enter their name into the spreadsheet (without them also being able to edit the spreadsheet directly.
kwalka, if you go under the Tools menu, select 'Go to Live Form'. This will open the form, copy the URL from the address box at the top of the browser and post that for people to go to the form. (should work like that, I think![]()
)
Please add me
I am able to adjust the access with the sharing like you said before. I was trying to add the form so they could just add there name and it would auto add them to the sheet, without them being able to edit the sheet. The option to do this was under tools like you said, but when I accidentally closed the secondary box, the option disappeared.
I think you did add a form to the spreadsheet. Actually, it's the 'Form(0)' menu you need to go to and then 'Go to Live Form'.
