    Hi- 

    I know that I can have a form sent as a pdf attachment to an email address, but can I change to a  csv/txt/xlsx attachment?

    If you meant to convert your form to CSV/TXT/XLXS and send as an attachment, I'm afraid that it is not possible.

    You can only create it as PDF.

    I'm not sure how you would like to have your form working even if it is in TXT/CSV/XLXS?

    If you can shed some light on it, please?

    Thank you!

    Honestly, I didn't encounter such request so far since I don't see how our form would work from Excel or Text editor. Of maybe we have a misunderstanding her since you're mentioning parser and database, I assume you're actually referring to form results?

    If that's the case, you could use CSV, Excel, HTML or RSS listing that you can parse with XML parser.

    I'm sorry if I'm mistaken here.

    Please let us know your thoughts.
