A previous form that I used had a strict check on any one of the fields of the form, does the loose check do this ? I have asked one of our users who has two email addresses to try a submission with the strict check and it of course blocks his submission from their other address, but when I set it to loose check they can send duplicate submission. Can you suggest that the strict check only checks for a specified duplicated field for example email address.

Hi Willy,

Loose Check controls the browser cookie. User can submit another entry if he clears his browsers cache or if he uses different browser.

Strict Check controls the IP address. Users cannot submit multiple times unless he is submitting the form on different IP address.

The feature you are talking which checks if duplicate data has been submitted is different from the above mentioned. That's called Unique Question. Here's a guide: http://www.jotform.com/help/223-How-to-set-Form-Limits-Based-on-a-Unique-Question

I can't get the email address to appear in the drop down.
