Qstation is a self-service web site where visitors can set up (or arrange to have set up) simple or complex, single or multi-page, database supported, web based structured data gathering forms. These forms can be used for surveys, applications, Experimental Data, Clinical Trials, subscriptions, complaints/suggestions, business relationship forms, requests for information, polls and more.

1. Create your HTML form, making sure all your form fields are named properly.
    
2. Upload your HTML forms to Qstation. We will provide an FTP directory exclusively for you.
    
3. Using your web browser, load your HTML forms into the Qstation engine. At this point your form now has application support and is database enabled, meaning responses will be stored in the database. Users creating simple one page forms can move directly to step 6 to deploy their forms.
    
4. Make edits, specify decision tree (if any), URL you want to send your respondent after they filled out the forms, error messages, etc.
    
5. Preview your pages.
   Note: All forms are protected by the web server until they are deployed. This means that a user name and password is need to access a form at this point in the process.
    
6. Deploy your pages. We will provide you with a URL of your pages that you can use to send your respondents to.
    
7. After deployment, you can define and run reports on your survey. You can view the reports online or download the files to your local hard drive so you can manipulate them in a spreadsheet.
