Gosh,

That says to me you need much more than the vtiger Webform is designed 
to provide!

If I were you I'd either build a custom front end in something like 
Joomla! & Fabrik, Wordpress or Drupal, and use the Webservices API to 
get the data to & from vtiger. Or you could do it by modifying the 
Customer Portal and the SOAP API, but I think this is being phased out 
and replaced by Webservices in the near future.
