Hello all, I have 3 forms named A, B and C. In form A, I keep a list of all my products. Basically there are Product Code, Product Description and Quantity fields. I use form B to create a production recipe. This form has 10 different repeater fields. Each repeater represents a category of the products. Each repeater has Product Code (Lookup Field poppulated from Form A regarding to the products category), Product Description (Text field and populated via selected product code) and Quantity (number field) fields. I want to construct Form C as an order form for the products selected in Form B. Form C also has Product Code (Lookup Field), Product Description (Text field and populated via selected product code) and Quantity (number field) fields. I want to populate the product code field as a list of all products selected in different repeaters in form B.   SCHEME:   How can i achive this?

Building relationships between forms is a Formidable Forms strength. I wouldn't have used lookup fields. I would have used dynamic fields because they are much more flexible display-wise. Everything you want to do can be done, but you'll need custom code. There's not enough knowledge about your design to explain exactly what you need. It is do-able however.
