    Post Office 365 Upgrade. Now I can't email a form to collect data

    Where is the Collect data through e-mail messages in Access Office 365?



    My company has just upgraded to Office 365 and the Microsoft access Create An Email Form is no longer an option. I used send an email that embedded a form from a table in Access. I could send out the email with information the reviewer needed to update and have them email back to me the results. Now its gone and I am not sure where I could duplicate the same process. Attached is a picture from the old process.

    Does anyone know if you can still do this in Access for Office 365?

    That functionality was only available in 2007 and 2010:

    Oh, and you can certainly import data from emails, either from the body or from attachments. You could send out an Excel file and have them sent back. I'm sure that would involve more work than the built-in functionality, but it is doable.
