I am so grateful.
The rub is in your first para. I cannot take that work. All the rest I was aware of - I had read your GeoNet. Thanks.
In Connect, I opened my most-recent web designer version. I opened the Excel version, saved to a new name. Edited one database field name (column 2). Saved . I then get the error message “Error converting XLSForm There has been a problem trying to replace $ with the Path to the survey element ‘field0’. …”
Clearly I am trying to edit the old version and I have not established a brand new and therefore unpublished and editable version. Why will it not me overwrite?
Re your 2. I do want to change the geodatabase field names (from the ‘field_0’ to my meaningful “Sitecode”). I have not knowingly made any further reference to be altered.
How do I overwrite or create a separate? The later seems a better option given the old works and has data attached.
Regards
