Using numbered fields

For each type of variable information in a presentation, you provide a different field name. Frequently, however, two or more fields in a presentation can be related to the same kind of information. For example, you might have any number of clients with each client requiring its own field definition. To keep these fields related but separate, you use the same field name plus a number, such as [Client 1], [Client 2], and so forth.

Assuming you enter different values for each of these field names in PowerForms, each of the numbered fields receives a different value. However, all of these numbered fields will be linked to the corresponding non-numbered field. For example, [Client]. In this way, you can have a single list of clients who frequently appear in your presentations, but they can appear in any order in your presentations.

Consider also, the following:

PowerForms removes trailing spaces and digits when converting a numbered field.
Although the following list of fields would, most likely, result in different information in your presentation presentation, they would all use the database [Field] entry:
 
[Field1], [Field2], [Field 1], [Field 2], [Field11334], [Field 23]
