    Repeating table with database

    I have a database(mdb) that populates the forms I have created. Some of the forms have repeating tables and I can't figure out how to populate a repeating table. So if I have a repeating table with 3 columns how do I setup the database and infopath to populate all of the columns and the rows.
    Right now I can get the column data to pull from the database but when I add another row in the form it copies whatever is in the first row.
    Thanks

    Hello pwave,
    Welcome to Infopathdev Forums

    You can do so by changing the binding in the repeating table properties
    Double click on the Table to open properties
    Click on Change Binding and select datasource in the next window and follow the instructions thereon.

    Re: Repeating table with database

    This forum link is talking about using a sharepoint service instead of a micrsoft mdb databse, which won't work the same way, I think. I did realize I could create an xml file from the database and then have the xml file populate the infopath form. Is there a way to go striaght from the database.

    Thank you so much for the help.
