InfoPath Dev

Hello hello,

I created cascading list boxes in InfoPath 2007 using a manual from office.microsoft.com (but I took the German version).
Through this the list boxes are constrained to each other: when I pick something from Listbox1, the contents of Listbox2 changes.
My problem: when I change the selection in Listbox1 the first selected entry in Listbox2 remains and the right content is appended.

First selection:

Selecting something else:

It's disturbing because people that use this InfoPath form could fill in wrong information.

Do you know how I can fix this?

Thank you!

I'll try it as soon as possible and give feedback (I think perhaps Monday).
Thank you!

Ok, right after posting that I do not understand your solution, I understood it - so I deleted my "I do not really understand what you mean"-text... ;)

I did everything you wrote, but now the ListBox2 is completely empty (it has the right number of entries, but the entries are blank).

(if you need a screenshot it may take one or two days, because I can't access the Infopath-File at home, but I also can't upload any files here at work...)

Hi, Lil:

Are you still having trouble with your cascading list boxes? I've posted a sample here that demonstrates the concept. Download it, open it in design view and preview it and see if it helps you, okay?

Hi!

Thanks! I'll try it as soon as possible! may not be able to try it until October because I'm not at work until then and I have no Infopath at home :(
