Smart UI - Create Data Entry Forms in Excel With Just One Click
Do you need to manually enter data into your Excel worksheets but want to make the interface as user-friendly as possible? An alternative is to use data entry forms.
Data entry forms provide a convenient way to enter or display a complete row of information from a range without horizontally scrolling the screen.

Developed based on artificial intelligence (AI), it is capable of completely autonomously analyzing your spreadsheets in search of the database, creating the data entry form instantly and harmonizing the layout according to the width and sequence of the columns in your spreadsheets.
