Gina,

I don't have a specific response to your question, only a suggestion. If
your form fields correspond to columns in a table, you might find
everything much easier to deal with if you modify the structure of your
database. You have, essentially, these types of information:
CLIENTID1,TASKID1,SUNHOURS1,MONHOURS1,TUEHOURS1,WEDHOURS1,THUHOURS1,
FRIHOURS1,SATHOURS1. To get different ClientIDs, you change the "1" to a
different number and add new columns to the table.

What you might consider is breaking this up into at least two tables, one
for the ClientID, and the second one for the tasks and hours associated
with that ID. All of the fields in the second table can have the ending
number dropped, then be combined into a single table with only 9 columns.
The ClientID field would be the link back to your Client table. Doing this
will shrink the size and complexity of your database, make it easier to add
new ClientIDs, if needed, and make inserts, updates, and deletes, not to
mention select queries, a snap to write.

HTH,
