Submitting multiple instance from 1 screen

Question

Hi,
Is there a possibility of submitting multiple instances from a single submit from a screen(jsp/presentation).
I know each instance is visible in the Inbox seperately. But is there any way, that we can display all the instances values in a tabular format and then have a check box to select the instances that we need to submit. We will also have some text box for each row allowing user to update/change some value for an instance?
I know this looks like a complicated requirement, but I guess this might be possible. I am thinking of creating an array of instances and then iterate through that array in the custom JSP to display the values in tabular format.
Any other suggestion would be helpful.
Regards

Sorry - probably just me, but not sure I follow you.
I think this thread concerns hitting multiple instances that already exist in a process.
I could be wrong - frequently am, but I usually think of a Split-N in the context of:
1) when you have a batch of things already in the instance and you want to split into their individual items (e.g. order -> individual order lines) and then rejoin them back into the original context (the order in this example)
2) when you want to dynamically create a committe (created inside the Split-N) of several people that you want to approve (inside an interactive activity assigned to specific participants) and determine how the committee voted (in the Join)
3) when you have a request for quote (e.g. send RFQ's to multiple "suppliers" and then vote for the low cost supplier).
