Perhaps you could have two views:  a Male view and corresponding
entry/edit form
and a Female view which its corresponding entry/edit form.  After the gender
question is
asked, one of two appropriate forms could appear.  This form could be a copy of
the
original form but with the inapplicable fields set so data could not be entered,
or
a new form could appear which had only the applicable fields.

        Another way to do this if you have 'clumps' of data which are relevant
in limited situations would be to use MDI forms.  You could enter the gender
field and get a popup list showing female, male.  Based on the selection,
[fvChoice] you could

ENTER/EDIT FemaleForm [.fvChoice]MDI AT  375,290,740,520   or
ENTER/EDIT MaleForm [.fvChoice] MDI AT 375,290,740,520

        Since you will be editing and storing the data in an existing row, the
data goes right
where it is supposed to go without any additional convolutions.

        A return from your MDI form will take you back to the form from which it
was called.
