Does anyone know if it is possible to to intertwine repeating field values? Example: I have two fields that repeat 10 times. Rather than place them next to each other in my layout, I want them on top of each other. BUT, I do not simply want the 10 repeating fields of Field 1 on top of the 10 repeating fields of Field 2. I want the first repeating field of Field 1 followed by the first repeating field of Field 2. This would be followed by the second repeating field of Field 1 and then the second repeating field of Field 2, and so on.

If anyone knows how to do this, please let me know.

Actually you can accomplish something like this with clever field formatting.

Make the fields high enough where 2 lines can be displayed. Set you 1st repeating field to be aligned to the top, and the 2nd repeating field aligned to the bottom.

This should allow them to appear as if overlapping.
