I feel like this is simple, but I need a dropdown that allows users to pick a number from 1 to 15. Then I need that dropdown to display a set of fields that repeats for the number of times they selected so they can input data for each one. Basically, I have clients who have anywhere from 1-15 candidates that all have separate information I need, and I don't want to have 15 sets of field for someone who only needed 2. Please help!

You will have to create the 15 sets in advance and then show/hide them based on the user's selection.

The other option is to use a separate page for each set of fields, and then spawn/delete those pages from a Template object.

How do I show/hide only certain fields. Would that be under Actions or Calculate?

I prefer to use the Validate event of the drop-down field for it.

It will require writing a script to do it. If the fields are named consistently then that code should not be very complicated.
