Question Forms with conditional hidden/visible fields

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could point me to a resource that would show some examples of how to build conditional formatting into a MS Word document with Form fields.

Specifically what I'd like to do is create a form that allows the user to enter a number in a text field that will then produce that number of a group of fields for them to fill out.

So for example: There would be a group of fields like Author Fname, Author Lname, Address, Phone, Title. The user would fill these out. Then there would be a conditional statement that says "Is there more than one author? If so how many?___ and here they'd put a number. The number would then populate (blank) duplicates of the above for as many authors as are indicated.

Not sure how to start with this.

Alternatively I was thinking, and this may be easier, that if there is more than one author, then it would open an embedded 2nd page or two to fill out (an appended document). Though I'm not sure exactly how to structure that.

I'm trying to keep the initial form simple and no more than 2 pages, but allow for expansion if there's more than one author.



Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!
