    Adding additional fields in form

    I need to know if it is possible to have a box in a form that you could select to add another field.



    For example:

    Field Experience Semester:
    Field Experience Year:
    Field Experience Name:

    Add another field experience?(Here I need to be able to click and below the above, it will present 3 more identical fields)

    I am not sure if this is possible...thought I would ask. Couldn't find anything out on the web.

    Thanks

    I don't see what you are aiming at here - when you add "three more identical fields", what are they for? What is the structure of the underlying table(s) - it almost looks as if you may need a form / subform arrangement - but please tell us more.

    Yes I do believe i need to do a form/subform. What i would like to do is give the option in the form to enter more entries for field experience if necessary.
    For example: A student does two Field experiences.
    The form would look like this:
    Field Experience Semester:
    Field Experience Year:
    Field Experience Name:
    [Button](Add another field experience)(upon clicking the following appears)
    Field Experience Semester:
    Field Experience Year:
    Field Experience Name:


    But from the sounds of it I would need a form/subform. I haven't messed with subforms yet. So I will do some research. Unless you have any tips.

    Thanks
