    Drop-down populated

    Hello Forum!

    I've searched but couldn't find the simple answer i was looking for.

    I have a large form and several fields is a Drop-down that should contain the values, for example Currencies.

    If i have:
    AFA-Afghanistan Afghani
    ALL-Albanian Lek
    DZD-Algerian Dinar
    ARS-Argentine Peso
    AWG-Aruba Florin
    AUD-Australian Dollar

    And i want to put a field that i can refer to from other Drop-Downs.
    Even though i populate some kind of repeating field i only get the first value from it.

    Source field contains(1,2,3)
    Drop-down that refer to Source field shows only (1)

    This sounds wierd. It should be pretty easy to do this. Are you sure you're binding the drop-down assignments to the repeating group instead of the node within the repeating group on the secondary DOM? You might also want to check to make sure that the secondary dom is truly getting the full list instead of just one item.

    I have a Drop-down and a repeating table, it's working great when i preview the form and input several values.

    so the real question is:
    how can i put several values in the repeating table when i design the form so that Drop-down have those values when the form is opened?

    Hi Woff,

    You should directly add several values in to repeating table in design mode depending on the binding of drop down values.

    1. For those dropdown values if you have secondary DOM, then open the secondary xml file in notepad directly you can add those values. This is the point above Matt Faus talking about.
    2. If you have main DOM, then open the template.xml file in notepad and add those values.
