Webmonkey looks like it'd be useful if I already knew what I was doing, but I'm a total noob with web anything.

Doesn't even have to be web really, just need a free solution on how to get to users a survey that they can fill out and I can get the data in a centralized form (xls/database etc..).

Surely someones done something like this before...

how many users?
how complicated of a survey?

I believe its called C#2005.net + SQL Server 2005.net... and its free!

all you have to do is learn how to program it.

Users? Maybe 100 over a spread out period of time.

Simple question survey, like

1: was the person you spoke with helpful?
a yes
b no
c Not sure


***above is just a real rough idea of something I'd be looking for.

Main thing is, I need to be able to send to customers electronically, have them complete it and it be submitted back and added to a centralized database (or spread sheet) of sorts, automatically would be even better.

We've used surveymonkey (.com, google it) before... but I don't think it's free. Maybe they have some sort of free trial you can check out.

I was just looking at that, it's not free but looks reasonable.

Might be a second option if I can't at all find something I can host from my own site for free.

Seems like there would be a way to create a survey/poll whatever in outlook, email it out to anyone I want, have them fill it out and have the results submitted back to me in a way that I can automatically or manually add that data to a database.

Seems that way but there's not. Do you have shared drives? You could put together a quick form in Access.

Those arn't free...

But the correct answer is Linux, Appache, MySQL and Ruby

I love LAMP.
