How to create an array of fields in the form?
Hello,
Is it possible to
create an array of fields in the form?
I have moss 2007.
For example,
I have a form
column "type
equipment"
another column
called "quantity. "
I want
the user can
enter the type
option and specify the
amount of equipment
that he can
add another item
again and select
a quantity of
equipment.
Thank you

Create "Equipment" and "Quantity" cokumns with "Choice (menu to choose from)" option, and fill names of Equipments and Quantity when you create those columns.(Pre defined values).
After creating a new item user can also edit value from the columnRegards, Pratik Vyas | SharePoint Consultant | http://sharepointpratik.blogspot.com/

Thanks for the
quick
reply,
this is the basis for creating
a form.
I want
the user can
add these
columns by
his need.
For example, one user can
add these
columns and uses
five and other
user 20.

My initial thoughts would be
1. A main list with form to enter the data. This should have
type equipment as choice column with values.
2. Create a list with three columns
Type
equipment - Lookup to the man list
quantity - single line text or whatever
ID - ID of the item in the main list. You can use ID field.
Now you need to customize the Newform.aspx and override the OK button to open a custom page with dataview webpart for List2. The dataview webpart can show you the add new item form on the page itself and will give your users an option to add as many
equipment - quantities as they want. Dont forget to send the ID in the querysting for auto population.
I did something similar to that some time back. Where i created a wizard think with forms from various lists.

Hi,
For your scenario, I think you can create multiple content types for the list, then user can select the content type they want when creating new
item. In the content types, you can specify different columns you want.
Hope it helps.Xue-Mei Chang
