Hi there,
I have a form that consists of 2 parts:
1. Survey Program Info: Top part is relatively static - that is, only needs to be filled out once in a while
2. Species Sightings: Bottom section will require entry of many records, which will relate to the top section (Survey Program)
How do you recommend I set this up?
One idea is to have a button in the Species Sightings section which would insert a new set of fields into the form. I'm not sure if this is possible, and if it is, how the new fields would be best named. For example, if I had a field 'Location' and then inserted a new row of fields (with a new 'Location' field), would I need a script that would put an automatic '_location2' at the end of the field value?
Another idea is to set up Survey Program Info as a separate form, and so the new Species Sightings form will display the Survey Program Info at the top, but it will be locked, and pulling in the data from a separate table.
My apologies if this is confusing!
thanks for any help
