MarianLeinNetlution the only way to do this in Forms is with a huge amount of duplication of sections & questions. So if the user selected 1 you would just have 1 follow-on section (called for example S1). Once they'd completed that it would branch to the end of the form.
But if they selected 2 you would need a copy of S1 called S2 which would then branch to S3 then to the end of the form.
If they selected 3 you would need a copy of S1 called S4, followed by copies of S2 and S3 called S5 and S6 and then branch to the end of the form.
Etc etc. Lots of work!!

I'll see if it's feasible and then (most likely) will try a different route without Forms...
