I'm trying to determing the best approach to doing a survey.
I have questions with several If..Then..Else scenarios. I want to have only 1 question per page. Depending upon how a users responds they would only see certain questions.
I'm trying to figure out I would need to create a separate form for each question or if there's a better way to do this.
 
separate forms are easy to do and quick....

I have done something similar, where depending on the answer in a combo box the operator would as one of 4 questions.

I put all the question controls on top of each other, and made the relevant one .visible=true - the others stayed .visible=false.

I also did a similar thing where all the questions were on top of each other, and automatically appeared - it didnt work to well becuase:

1-It was a pain to edit anything
2-the operators like to see the next question before they have to ask it
3-you could never go back to change a question, and it was hard to skip a question.

Another alternative is have all the questions visible, and only .enable the one you want.

Hope this is of some help.
 
Another approach would be to use a tab control.

Based on the user's response, you set the focus to the appropriate question which will automatically display the tab page. Larry De Laruelle
