I'm coming up with questions on an hourly basis it seems...I've done google searches and still can't seem to find answers, but sometimes asking the right question is the hardest chore.

 

Ok, I want to have an concession stand customer ordering system and this made sense "to me" in my graphical way of thinking, HA!:

 

I have layouts for each step, such as...

 

[step 1]

"Select order type..." (OrderTYPE is a field with Value List to choose from via radio buttons: Walk-Up, Delivery, Pick-Up).  I then made a 'NEXT' button that I thought I'd send to the corresponding Layout calculated by the choice selected---let's say [step 2: Walk-Up], [step 2: Delivery], [step 2: Pick-Up] accordingly.

How do I do this?  Via 'Layout Name by Calculation'?

If so, what would this calculation look like (I have a basic programming knowledge, artist by heart tho, of 'if/else' or 'case' arguments) in the correct syntax?

Am I even on the right thinking path?

 

Reason is some orders don't require needed info compared to others (ie: Delivery vs. Walk-Up)

 

[step 2]

[step 3]

[step 4]

etc...

 

I'm attempting to make a touch screen UI for iPad that is pretty simple and intuitive for taking orders.  If there's a better way of doing this, I'm all ears (eyes ;) ).

 

Thanks for taking the time!

have a two part layout names. make the prefix common, and the suffix your oder type.

order walkup

order pickup

then have the button go to layout by name calc:   "order " & <<field>>
