i am wanting to create a form that allows me to make some options before
entering in using an option group. for example i want to first find a
name
then i want to find a task for that person from a range of options.
within
that task i then want to be able to enter data from a list of 4 options.
I
want to be able to do this for a list of about 50 people. My knowledge of
access generally relies on using the wizards.

Can this be done?

You might be able to do this using the built-in "filter by form" function on
your main form - if your main form contains a combo box for your tasks field
then, in filter by form mode, all available tasks would be listed for you to
choose from.
