Is there a way to put a date in one field and then have additional fields populated with a sequence of dates. Example, July 1, 2007 and then the next 13 fields are populated with July 2, 3, 4... I am a novice and explanation has to be pretty simple, please. I want this be used in a form that can be saved by the users.

It explains how to do date calculations with JavaScript. The examples are given using AcroForms, but the calculations themselves will work in any JavaScript environment
