Is it possible to embed an iframe excel form inside of an email script or create a submit button?

Store Design

Topic summary

A user successfully embedded an Excel form from OneDrive into their website using an iframe but encountered a critical limitation: Excel Web/Online doesn’t support scripts or VBA, preventing them from creating a submit button that would email the completed form.

Key Challenge:

  • Need a way for users to submit the embedded form and have it automatically emailed
  • Google Sheets offers submit/email button functionality, but other aspects don’t meet their requirements

Alternatives Being Considered:

  • Creating a submit button on the webpage that captures and emails a copy of the page with the embedded iframe
  • Embedding the iframe inside an email contact form, allowing users to simply hit submit to send a copy of the file

The user acknowledges they’re likely asking for something that isn’t possible but wanted to explore all options for their store customization needs.

I was able to embed a customer order form as an excel file using iframe onto my website. Everything looked like it was going to work perfect, but then I realized that excel web/online from OneDrive doesn’t have a way to run any scrips or use VBA to create a button that the user could click to send the form after it has been completed.

Google sheets on the other hand offers the ability to create a submit/email button, but nothing else about google sheets would work well for me in this case.

Does anyone know if I can somehow embed the iframe inside of an email contact form that the user can then simply hit submit and it’ll email me a copy of the file? I am assuming the answer will be no, but I figured I might as well ask.

Alternatively, is there a way to create a submit button on a webpage that has an iframe embedded in it and somehow email me a copy of the page with the file that way?
