Linking User Name to all Forms

    Being a newbie at this I may not be asking this properly but here goes. I created 3 forms, 1 identifies the user with a username. Then I go to another from 2 that takes information and finally a form 3 that uploads files.

    I guessing that it is creating 3 tables in my database for each of these forms. Since the first form has the username, is there any relationship between the other other two forms since they do not have the username on them?

    I am thinking I should have included all the input on one form, thereby having one record with a username.

    Is there a better way to do this? Can usernames be carried over and used on forms 2 and 3?

    I am a minimal php guy so be simple.....

    You are right that it will create 3 tables in your database. One for each form.

    There is no easy way to pass variables between form, as it requires custom programming. However, if you could hire some PHP programmer it won't be too complex to do so.
