2 Part Form on One Page

[contien]

Is it possible to create a 20 field form on one page with the following requirements:

1.  The first 5 fields will be filled-in by the first user, saved, and forwarded to the second user.

2.  The second user will then fill-out the remaining 15 fields however, I do not want to give the second user the ability to edit the first 5 fields filled-out by the first user.  Ideally, the landing field on opening the form by the second user would be the 6th field.

Thanks!

Does the 2nd user need to see what is typed into the first 5 fields (even though he cannot change it) or woudl you rather have them look like they were not even on his form?

Yes, the second user needs to see what the first user entered and saved.  The second user should not be able to edit what the first user entered.

Then you will need to set up a flag (hidden fields work best) that tells you which user is filing the form. When the first user clicks the button to send,check the flag to see which user it is then make those fields readonly by using Fieldname.access = "readOnly"then update the flag to indicate user2

The form will not be submitted via a button; the form is saved on the server and is accessible through the network.  Instead of "send" is there a "save" solution?

Sure ...its just a button click that kicks off the logic. Note that you cannot do an unattended save, the user will have to ackowledge the save.
