    Formatting issue with repeating table

    Hello - I have created a browser available form (because not all users that are to fill it out have access to InfoPath) and I am trying to create a repeating table but am running into some issues with formatting. I've included a screenshot of my table so far.

     As you can see, the repeating section works nicely if only one sample/product is needed. However, I want the user to be able to indicate how many sample/products there are, and then have that number of columns appear (instead of the one shown) with the appropriate text box for weight percent and the summation at the bottom for each as well. If this were a client based form, I would just insert a horizontal repeating table as the last column and allow the user to manually put in however many sample/product name columns they wanted...however, because of the incompatibility with a browser form, I can't use this control.

     If anyone has any insight on this issue, I'd REALLY appreciate any tips!

    Thank you in advance!

    Hi - did your other thread address this question, or do you still have a question here you need help with?

     Hi Hilary,

     I am still curious if it would be possible to apply what you figured out for me in the other thread to columns in a repeating table (variable number of sample/products as shown in the photo above)

     

    Thanks for your time,

    Sarah

    InfoPath doesn't let us add columns dynamically, I'm afraid - so without the horizontal repeat, I don't think this can be done.

     Do you think it would be possible to be done in a Workflow?

     

    thank you!
