Add/Remove buttons not working properly on hidden Subforms

I have this pdf form that has hidden subforms that appear when certain boxes are checked. I'm having issues with my Section C. subforms. I have add/remove row buttons, plus buttons that allow the user to rearrange the data within. As long as the subform is set to Visible, the add/remove buttons work. When it is hidden, the add row button does nothing and the remove row button will take away the only row visible (and it shouldn't do that).

 

I'm hoping someone can tell me what where I went wrong?

 

To make it easier for you: 

If you answer "No" to the first question in Section B, Section C2 will appear. 

 

If you check "a PMA based on Test and Computation" in Section A and answer "No" to the first question in Section B, Section C3 will appear. 

 

C2 and C3 are my hidden trouble makers.

I personally did not, my predecossor did. I just inhertied it and I'm trying to improve it.

 

In the past, you couldn't rearrange the rows. There was just an Add/Remove button at the top. 

 

Here is the file I started with, if that helps.

Did you use another user name in the suggested forum? I couldn't find a post from you there. 

 

I also can't follow you description. The add/remove row buttons (green/red) are located in sections C1 and D1 but not in C2 or C3 and there's no relation to those sections. I also don't see any buttons to rearange things only the red and geen buttons, which work just fine, regardless of the visiblitly of C2 and C3.
