    Hi,
    I have a client that wants to setup a data entry form the has the following info:
    - Last Name
    - First Name
    - Date of Birth
    - Type of Test (with a pull down of five test options)

    He wants to enter the submitted info into a google sheet BUT he wants to prevent duplicate data on the test type. If the person has had the test conducted before the system needs to go to an error page stating that the user cannot be added to the sheet or it needs to put an error when submission is attempted notifying the staff member about this. Can your system do this?
