I want to create a form which contains a field were multiple answers can be
given to the same questions.  How do I do it?

Hi Elena,

If I understand correctly, you need to be able to create an InfoPath form
(that is basically questions and answers to those questions) where there
could be multiple answers for each question - correct? If so, then see if
the following steps provide what you need:

- Display the Controls Task Pane
- Select Repeating Table
- Enter 2 for the number of columns and click OK
- Select the text box in column #2 and delete it
- Insure your mouse cursor is still in column #2 and select Repeating Table
from the Controls Task Pane again
- Enter 1 for the number of columns and click OK
- Right-click on the repeating table in column #2 and choose Repeating
Table Properties
- Select the Display tab, uncheck the Header option and click OK
- Preview and test

This should allow you to, say, enter Question #1 in the text box in column
#1 and then enter multiple answers for question #1 in the repeating table
that exists in column #2.

I hope this helps!
