    I want to know how to duplicate all the same field based on the number selection. For instance if someone wants to enter 5 cars on the same field I want the same fields to show up 5 times. Can this be set up with out having to duplicate each field individually?

    Thanks for your help!

    How can I make each section be a separate line in the excel download. For instance, the form is for multiple cars, I would like each car entry within the same form to be separate line items. Do you follow my question?
