This may sound confusing, so let's see if I can explain it correctly.
I want a user to be able to select a number of dependents from a drop down list. Based on the number they select I want that many fields of name, date of birth, etc... for each dependent to appear.
I can do this be hiding and showing questions.
If someone had 10 dependents, this can be a lot of questions. Would there be a way to have dynamic questions created by dynamic questions?
I haven't walked through the process of if it would work, or how often it would get used. I am doing it now for someone and was looking for a quicker means of getting there.

Ummm... The best thing here would probably be to have the source code and create a new control for 'Data Grid' or something. We are looking to add one to the core product eventually but its a few versions down on the roadmap. Basically a datagrid would allow the user themselves to click a plus character and continue adding another entry for each one etc...

Oh, and in the datagrid you would specify which columns should exist, i.e 'Dependents' would be the question/title and the qolumns would be first name, last name, relationship type, age etc...

I had thought about getting the source code, but I don't want to start changing source code then having to merge with updates at this time.  I was more thinking of playing with the events to do it, but I like that idea of the datagrid though.

 

Something for me to add to the whiteboard.
