Hi All

I have been designing a form which has around 15 optional sections on it so far. When I preview the form and click on one of the optional sections they all open up.

Has anyone come across this problem before? Not sure wether its important or not but most of the optional sections also contain repeating sections.

thanks

I think you have done the following steps
1. Dragging the Optional section.
2. Copied the above optional section and pasted 15 times
3. Preview the form
4. It behaves the way you have mentioned

To over come the above issue follow the below steps
1. Drag the Optional section number of times you require without copy-paste

I hope this helps you
Thanks

Hi Acros and welcome to our forum,
You have a very interesting scenario. Never heard of this problem. ...

Hi Devi!
Great insight on this. I think you may be right on what happened.

Devi- Thanks for replying!

While I didn't copy and paste the sections I think you may be on the right track. Since a lot of the sections contained some of the same fields I was just referencing them from other sections so that, for example, I could set all cost fields to be doubles in one go.

May be that had something to do with it.

Another wierd thing is that when I export it to work without the service pack it works fine! Because of this, the situation has turned into a curiosity rather than a problem.

thanks again anyway.
