Converting a form into excel spreadsheet

I have a form (fill-in and submit by email)created with Abobe design and i want to know how to get the computer to take the information from the form and create a continous excel spreadsheet. I want to control the way the spreadsheet is set up as well. Can someone help?

Re: Converting a form into excel spreadsheet

I think your first step woulb be to convert the InDesign form to a PDF form, then Run Form Field Recognition to make it a fillable form. Have the form filled in then Export the file as a Text file. Problem is that it may not retain the formatting you had in the PDF file.
