I would like to be able to have an input form that will update my database in the background, and on another page a form that will show the updated database

I'm not sure I understand the part: "input form that will update my database in the background". Can you explain more?

An input form meaning some sort of page that you can input figures then press a button which then sends the information to the database,

on another page is a results section which shows the updated figures from the database

That's pretty simple.. just follow this tutorial: http://docs.appery.io/tutorials/build.... The only difference, you will navigate to another page (instead of staying on the same page).

only issue i have is how would i be able to have multiple boxes instead of a list that i will be able to enter information into

When you say boxes -- what component are you trying to use?

i was thinking of using multiple input components

To display and edit at the same time?

to edit on the input page and to display on the results page

Are you able to have one input -- as shown in the tutorial? Having two or more inputs would be the same. Define collection columns, generate services (POST for saving data) and then map services to page.
