Data Entry Question...

[116]

I have been handed a project that is a form with a header and that has many
lines of info below. Looking for the best way to approach this. A table for
the header info, and one for the detailed info? This is a setup sheet for
operations. Hopefully I am explain this in way someone understands.

A form would work fine. If you want a header, just use
<h2>text in here</h2>
or
<h3>text in here</h3>
or
<h4>text in here</h4>
depending on what size font you want fro the header text.

A look at a draft would help, even if you just type it up and post it

Thanks for the assist. I do beleive I didn't give enough detail. This form
is a setup sheet for machine operators. The top of the form has all machine,
job part, etc, info, where the bottom could have upto 12 different tools.
Each having different info. The header info would be redundant to enter for
each tool line. So I was thinking 2 tables. First entering the header info,
then the tool info. But I need to link them some how during the entry
process. I hope this better explains.
