This is very handy in case you receive frequent answers from a certain form but the options a user may select change often - a list of employees (hopefully growing!) or a list of available items.

Just use the Load worksheet building block to load the a worksheet containing the current options. So a list of your current employees or a catalogue of all items you sell. By running the Update fields building block you can populate the existing form with the current values quickly at any time.
