Microsoft released a new update of Office build to the insiders in the Windows Beta Channel, formerly known as Fast Ring. The latest Microsoft Office Insiders Preview Build 15310.20004 adds an improvement to Microsoft Office Suite and a list of bug fixes.
The latest build adds the ability for users to collect form responses from 5 million users in a single form. Earlier it was limited to only 50,000 responses. For further information (official changelog), continue reading further.
What's new and improved in Microsoft Office build 15310.20004
Maximum number of form responses extended to 5 million
The total number of responses allowed on an individual form or quiz in Forms has been increased from 50,000 to 5 million. This change eliminates the need to use multiple forms to collect more than 50,000 responses. Form owners can now gather up to 5 million responses on a single form, and can also export the results as a .csv file for further analysis.
