Add Headings, Questions, and Grids

Once you have created your form, you will need to add headings and questions to which your users will respond. Place your mouse on the form where you would like to add a new header, question or grid.

Headers are typically used to separate blocks of questions related to the same topic. The Question and Grid options provide you with the same question types to choose from, which may differ depending on the type of form you are using. The Grid options are typically used if a number of questions in a row use the same response choices.
