One field displaying multiple times on responses collected

On the original form, I have one numeric field for a product (where customer would input the amount needed) but when the order is placed, one field for this product (product A) shows up 10 times in the form response file.

I have deleted the actual numeric field and tried making a new numeric field but each time, it shows up 10 times on the form response file.

How do I make it so that this particular numeric field shows up only once in the response file instead of 10 times?

LiveCycle Designer, Windows

Hi,

Weird problem you have.
It looks like your're using a dynamic form and your field is repeated through some circumstances that are caused by your form design.
What kind of binding do you set for this field? If it is 'global' set it back to normal and check out what happens then.

What's the name of the field? And, are there other fields with the same name and do you use some script for the field(s)?
Is it a dynamich or static form.
I need some more information to get an idea of your problem.

I'm very new at creating forms on this.... so I'm not sure if I'm giving you the information you need.

I have 2 fields with almost the exact name (One, I have listed as "Tropical-1" and the other as "Tropical-2". I also have a text field with the name of the product that says "Tropical").
I don't think I made it dynamic (I don't know how to do that). Under "cell", neither of the boxes (limit length to visible area and comb of) are checked. Default binding is listed as "normal". Both of the numeric fields have caption....

You use a table?

Yes. It's in a table.
First column has the name of the item and then 2 columns next to it are the numeric fields for ordering....
The numeric fields that keep repeating in the response file are in one row.
