Abstract
A system that aggregates and submits data from a customized packet of forms. The system first creates a single data unit for storing form data which is initially empty. It then opens a main document, which has associated forms. For each associated form in the main document, the system extracts data from client-populated fields in the associated form and concatenates data from the associated form to the single data unit. In this way, data from every associated form in the customized packet of forms is aggregated into the single data unit. The system then submits the single data unit.
