    I haven't heard of many of these colleges either. Well, I'm not a college expert or anything so I don't expect myself to know a ton of them but still. :p They keep giving me technical schools.

    I was using the downtime of no Rubins to come up with a better strategy for pooling schools... and lo and behold, MEGA THOUSANDS OF RUBIN HITS EXTRAVAGANZA! *champagne*

    So: here's my experiment. A Google Form that compiles our entries into a spreadsheet that automatically alphabetizes them!

    Please use it and see if it works for you. Thanks!

    Like this one did?

    Just say I think you just did a lot of rework.

    Point was to utilize a form where others could submit simultaneously. Submissions would then be automatically alphabetized.

    Also, every Rubin batch is different - yes there is some overlap, but not much generally.

    Edit - and you don't need to neg-rep me as a form of criticism. We build on each others' ideas, that's the point of a forum.

    If you'd like, I'll share with you how I made the form to collect schools, and how I got it to alphabetize. I think it would be best if each Rubin batch had its own spreadsheet, because there is generally little overlap (but not none, you are correct).

    OK, I understand. But I think one searchable spreadsheet can reduce time over all. In finding schools and making spreadsheets. The one I put up was alphabetized and anyone could add a school(s) they found but it didn't automatically alphabetize. I kept going back to it and re-alphabetized it. So I would love to know the function you use for doing it automatically. I like your submit form, well made. I didn't even think about making one of those.

    As far as your neg-rep, I use reddit a ton, thus when I came here and saw the two buttons side by side I figured they were like the upvote/downvote type. So when I saw your post which appeared to me as just a rework of the hard work I already did I downvoted you. It seems that is not how this forum works though. It doesn't look like I can un-neg-rep you as I get this message: 'You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to srdress again'. So sorry about that.

    I appreciate your response. I'm not a reddit-er, but I get where you're coming from. Maybe a post up-vote down-vote would be a useful tool instead of an individual rep score... anyway, that's not my department haha.

    Regarding the submit form and auto-alphabetize, I did a lot of googling about Google Drive and such. It basically uses two google spreadsheets - one where people input data using the form, and one that uses a formula to input a range of data from that spreadsheet while sorting it on school name.

    I'll post details in a separate post.

    Google Forms/Spreadsheet Guide - assumes some familiarity with Google Spreadsheets

    1. In Google Drive, make a new spreadsheet. This will be for data entry only. Make it viewable to the public (but you will never distribute this link). Freeze the header row (under View).
    Ex: “RUBINfindcoursedata”

    2. From that spreadsheet, make a form (under Forms). Change the title and theme to your liking. This will be where people can input their data.

    3. Now make a second spreadsheet, which will be the alphabetized list. Make it viewable to the public.
    Ex: “RUBINcoursesalphabetized”

    4. You will need to input the data from your data-entry spreadsheet into your alphabetized spreadsheet. Copy the header row and freeze it. In cell A2, paste the formula =SORT (importRange("key","sheet1!B2:F1000"))

    The “key” is in the URL of your data entry sheet. For https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AoeruyrlqEtndEJqcnk4M29DNTZPcjJsM2EyakZpOWc#gid=0, the key is 0AoeruyrlqEtndEJqcnk4M29DNTZPcjJsM2EyakZpOWc

    5. Edit your form to include a link to the alphabetized spreadsheet so that others can see it.

    6. You might want to keep your data-entry form open so that you can monitor entries and delete blank or incomplete rows. DO NOT delete rows on the alphabetized spreadsheet, only the data-entry one.
