    Auto generating form based on data from another, saving in SharePoint Doc libs

    I am an InfoPath newbie.  I started with a Word doc of a checklist, and converted it to an InfoPath form, then added 100 or so checklist data fields to it.  Using some examples, I modifed the form to submit to a SharePoint document library.  Now the requirements have changed and basically a new InfoPath form must be generated from the items the user selected in the first form.  The new form basically needs to be,"you selected items 1, 2, 3, 8, 23, 55, now give a reason for why you selected each of them", with text boxes for each of the reasons selected in the previous form.    And then this form needs to be saved to another SharePoint document library.  I am not sure how to auto-generate a form based on the data in another form.  Can someone please point me in the right direction?  Thank you.

    you will just need to create two views, on one view show all the fields and on the other hide the rows for which check box is not clicked.

    So I created two views, one with everything, and one missing the explanation rows.  So on the explanation rows view, I must now put conditions on each row to not show the row unless the checkbox was checked.  Where can I find a tutorial on how to do this? Thanks.
