date field labels question

All,

I have a checklist about 75 fields long, each field being a picklist field with 3 values: "N/A, In Process, Complete."  The problem is, I have to create 75 corresponding date fields that serve to store the completion date for each item.

Do I label every field "Completion Date"?  The caveat being that the concatanation of the corresponding field label + " Completion Date" is becoming entirely too long.  If I do label each field simply "Completion Date" does this cause problems when generating reports because each field shows up as "Completion Date"?  How has anyone else accomplished a form similar to this?

Thanks in advance

It sounds like each of your 75 checklist items is identical in structure.  Why not have a master-detail?  Then each record would have a Status field and a completion date, with perhaps a descriptive field also. That seems to much cleaner to my way of thinking.
