Hi I need some help with creating a excel file that we will continue adding data to. I have made a fillable pdf using adobe but I would like that every time someone fills out a form and clicks the submit button it will transfer the data to the excel sheet. How could I do this??

In case of PDF, check the documentation and specialized forums: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/setting-action-buttons-pdf-forms.html.

So technical inter-operation is not great between those formats. You can create fillable forms in Excel by locking/unlocking cells and applying worksheet protection. That would be much easier to implement.
