Simple....add a form variable called 'numberofentries'.
If defined loop and create a X entries each suffixed by a number 1..X set an
invisible variable to the number requested. Action for the form should be to
some sort of insertentries.cfm
If not defined display a form which asks how many entries would you like to
make with the action to re-submit to the same form.
On submissio, the insertentries.cfm should loop X times and attempt an
insert. Make a check to make sure data exists for each entry.
