One form to set off another form and keep track of progress

Hi All

I am looking for a solution to the following problem:

I have one form (the parent form) which goes through a workflow. One of the first steps in the workflow is to fill out a table (or section, both repeating) with a number of tasks that needs to be performed. The task is entered in the parent form with a name, description and a responsible. next step in the workflow is a person from QA who looks at the tasklist and approves the list. When this happends, the tasklist should be read automatically and the data used to set off a number of task forms (children forms).

Now the parent form should pause in the workflow untill all the children forms are completed.

So I have two (so far) problems.

1. How do I set off children forms from a repeating table (or section or similar) with the data from the table?

2. How do I ensure that the children forms know who their parent is and make them report back once they are finished.

Any ideas?

Best regards

Nikolaj
