    Are you perhaps referring to showing hidden columns? You can click on the Columns button to hide/show fields on your table.

    If, however, you're referring to something else, kindly share some more information so we can point you in the right direction.

    I’m a bit confused why you keep suggesting tables? There is no table in the
    from that I sent. I want to know if it’s possible for me to add my own
    notes to the form after my client submits it. I do not want to edit their
    responses, and I do not want them to see the notes. Is this possible to do

    Sorry for the confusion. Tables is the new version of the submissions page. Columns that are added to the table automatically can only be viewed by you as the form owner.

    Thanks for clarifying. I don't see that option to add it on my existing
    form. Can you send me a video or instructions on how to specifically do
    that? Thank you!

    Sure. First, you need to click the "+ Add" button in your tables and then follow the short screencast below.

    Let us know how it goes.

    I don't think you're looking at the forms that I sent. I do not have any
    tables, so there are no additional columns to add. Is that the only way to
    add notes? Can I add notes to other form elements, or is that not possible?

    Hi officialsleepingbeauties,

    Could you kindly share with us the form you are referring to?

    Regarding Tables, each form will have Tables of its own. You may access each form's Tables by clicking on the form, then click Submissions.

    Then, you will be directed to the form's Tables.

    Tables work similarly to Spreadsheet. So my colleague is suggesting to create a new column which will work as Note for you.


    Can I add notes to other form elements, or is that not possible?

    Could you elaborate further regarding this? Would you like to add a note inside one of your fields (which your user has to field)? Or, are you referring to adding a hidden field, then add your notes into the hidden field?

    We await your response

    Okay now I see where you mean, but I don't think adding the column actually
    did anything LOL
    I don't see it there
    Here is the link to the form: https://form.jotform.com/201813990316050
    Basically what I need to be able to do is beside each question, I need to
    be able to make my own notes alongside the client submissions (ie: not one
    note box at the end, I'd like my notes to be beside each of the answers).
    Is that something that is possible?
    Thank you!

    Hi there,

    Happy to help!

    I made a clone of your form https://form.jotform.com/201813990316050 to show a potential workaround that you could have. I sent through a couple of test submissions to show how you could potentially do this.

    Similar to having one note column at the end of the submissions, you could add multiple Notes columns and then move them into place behind each column for your notes like so:

    Would this be a viable option for you?
