Hi Bruce

A non-technical answer - is it not possible to break the form up into
multiple pages? Each page can have only a few fields, and all you can do
is store each page's submitted data and then recover what would be a
partial entry of a large form by going to the last completed "miniform"
when the user logs back in.
