Quick summary - my job is being crappy and expecting an investment admin to create something beyond my capabilities.
My end goal is to have a Google Form (or other accessible option) where someone can type in the name of their child, click a button to add any grandchildren underneath that child, then be able to add additional entries of either children or grandchildren. The output essentially looking like this:
Child name Grandchild name Grandchild name Child name Child name
Microsoft's InfoPath 2013 allows for this using a repeating section (the repeating control being a text box) and inserting an optional section (which contains a simple repeating list control) into the repeating section. That allows users to add as many children or grandchildren as they need without inserting a giant empty table and each user submitting a different format.
Since pretty much no one has InfoPath Filler and almost none of them use Outlook for personal email, at least one of which is required to fill out a form created in InfoPath, I wanted to use a more accessible option. I landed on Google Forms, but they don't have options to create something similar, and none of the existing add-ons seemed to provide that capability. I would love to be able to write a script to solve this problem, but that is way beyond my capability.
Does anyone here have any suggestions or know how I could solve my problem?
