Hello Stephanie,
is it possible populate dinamically a field with custom form values stored in database?
I use magic field plugin to create custom field.
Doing an example:
I have custom field named animal. With magic field I create values: cat, dog, mouse, leon, tiger.
With formidable pro, I create a field animal. Select custom field animal. Can I populate values dinamically with values stored in database? For me this is really important.
thanks for your support and sorry my bad english.

Formidable Pro works with custom post types. I can really tell if the Magic Fields plugin is using custom post types or not, but if not, you could switch to a plugin that does (like Custom Post Type UI). The current FP version will automatically populate one taxonomy per post type (post categories are automatically populated). The version that is currently in beta (due for release next week) includes a little more flexibility with custom taxonomies, allowing multiple taxonomies.
So, I think the answer is yes. It looks like that Magic Field plugin uses custom post types, but it's hard to tell without digging into the plugin code.

I've read that thread and now I have a doubt:
1. I'm writing a some forms to make sport gear reviews and expected the users could comment it.
Can I use the standard comment system? How?
2. I also use the Comment Rating plugin. If finally we write a custom comment display, can we use inside it the shortcodes (thumbsUp/thumbsDown) of the comment rating plugin?

Another dout (no relation with above):
3. There is some way to choose which richtext fields has image upload buttons and which not?
I mean: having three richtext fields on a form, to have first with only text buttons, second with text+links buttons and third with text+link+image-upload buttons

You can use the default Wordpress comments if you set up your form to create posts. Setting up comments with Foemidable is an option for those who need it.
There isn't currently a way to limit the rich text buttons per field. Sorry!
