Adding widgets to Oracle Forms dynamically

[Quoted] Has anyone tried to add widgets to Oracle Forms at run time? And reports too for that matter.

We want to be able to have dynamic data entry screens. For person 1 we may want to ask 5 questions. For person 2 we want to ask 5 questions. However, of the 5 questions 3 are the same for both people but the other 2 are specific. I really do not want to have a seperate screen for each set of different questions.

I know I can create multiple canvases and display the canvas with the desired questions on it. This would be fine for a few different sets of questions. I have not benchmarked this but I would guess any more than 10 would begin to get cumbersome. Due to both size and complexity.

Thank you,
Bob Six
