    Issue Syncing Lists with InfoPath

    Hello Everyone,

     

    I'm new to SharePoint and to InfoPath, so this might be an obvious answer but I just can't seem to figure it out. I am using the newest SharePoint and InfoPath 2013.

     

     I have two different lists:

    List A

    EMP_ID, FirstName, LastName

     

    List B

    Address_ID, Address, City, State, ZIP, EMP_IDFK

     

    I have a data connection for both of those lists separately.

    When I have repeating sections for each of those fields in one long row, the data does not sync up between the rows. For Example:

     

    FirstName -- Last Name -- Address -- City -- State

    A1                       A1              B1            B1         B1

    A2                       A2              B2            B2         B2 

    A3                       A3              B3            B3         B3 

     

    However, if the second table doesn't have information in it for someone, that row disappears.

     

    FirstName -- Last Name -- Address -- City -- State

    A1                       A1              B1            B1         B1

    A2                       A2              B2            B2         B2 

    A3                       A3              Missing!

     

    Worse yet, if a fourth person is added, their address info is where the last person's address info should be:

     

    FirstName -- Last Name -- Address -- City -- State

    A1                       A1              B1            B1         B1

    A2                       A2              B2            B2         B2 

    A3                       A3              B4            B4         B4 

     A4                      A4

     

    Am I setting up my lists incorrectly? Am I missing something obvious in InfoPath?
