    Self Generating Infopath Table Based on SharePoint List

    All,

     Can't think straight right now.

    The plan is to develop a "checklist" InfoPath form so that we know various processes have been followed.

    I have a sharepoint list with the following columns for each item: 1.title 2.action.  Each title above is actually a question with a correspoinding action step.

    I have 20 or so items.  Yes I could manually create a table in InfoPath and paste in each question. Yet, the question list is updated frequently.  I'd like to receive the data from SP and have InfoPath automatically prepopulate the first two coloums on form load. I'm thinking a 'repeating' table, yet for the life of my I can't figure this out.

     How could I go about this?

    Thanks

    You can create a default data connection to receive the data from the SharePoint list. That part is easy. Now the data is in the secondary data source.

    You could use qRules CopyTable (or, better yet, Insert and SetValue) to bring that data over to the main data source. If not using qRules, then (I assume) custom code could accomplish this for you.

    For a free trial of qRules, contact us via this page.
