    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!!
