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.
