The wizard data is already attached to the session. You can go back and forth to the wizard and unless you got o page zero it remembers its state. When you generate is saves the state in a pickle within the newly created app. If you open the wizard again on the app, it reverts to that state.

I think a button with a plus sign, near every table field, is more in intuitive, the enter. Don't remove the enter, just add the plus sign too. If you don't do that, for the very least, explain that adding another field is done with enter as well. On Oct 22, 10:36 am, dederocks
