Add forms to a form

[Alberto]

Hi,
Any way of use "cards" inside a form?
That is, you have a FormA that updates the TableA, the user choose what "cards" to add to that FormA, this cards are another forms which updates another tables.
Then when the user opens FormA, it opens adding the "cards" (anothers forms) to the page letting the user to see and update all in only one browser page.

I imagine it's possible, but would probably revolve along the lines of
a) set the "parent" form so that it has a tab for each possible card
b) _hide_ the tabs (cards) the user doesn't want to see.

but I expect you'll encounter a bunch of obstacles as well (A save button on each tab, which only saves the fields on that tab, being the most obvious. That could be countered by automatic field saving - like we discussed in a  webinar recently.)

Cheers
Bruce

mhhh I think this is not possible because you can have hundreds of cards.
This is for a Medical History Record.
Each card is a desease, a possible desease the patient has or not.
There are a max number of cards to update per form, then you could set a number of tabs in the form, but you dont know which card will be in each tab, then ...
How to add another form inside a tab?
