    Trying to submit an IP 2010 browser document-based form with repeating sections to SP 2010 Form Library AND a separate List.

    I have a InfoPath 2010 form with repeating sections, which is a farm admin approval-based form already created and currently submitting to a SharePoint 2010 Form Library.  I also want to submit the data in the fields to a separate Custom List everytime the user Submits the form. I have tried the receive secondary data source to the list with CAML process of using an XML file and a Web Service Submit secondary to the Main Submit to the form library.  The Custom List has different labled columns (for ease of use on a list) corresponding to each field on the form.  So far, I do not know how to map the List columns to the appropriate data fields on the form, and using Rules to Submit to multiple sources (form and list), I get a SOAP exception error when trying to Submit that the List is not found. (would getting the farm admin to re-approve possibly fix this?)  I have double checked the GUID of the list and verified it is correct in the default value of the ListName field. Am I on the right track or should I be taking a different route to get the results I want?  I have no problem if the solution requires code using a VSTA solution or a procedure I can write in C# and Visual Studio. Since the List has different column names or even if they were the exact same syntax the adding of a Repeating Table containing all the List fields is obtrusive to the main form and requires some sort of mapping field for field.  I thought maybe with Rules I could publish the List related repeating table on a different view and have the rules set the values of the List columns. However, then I have an issue with the fields that are in repeating sections not merging with previous data submitted to the List.  Any help would be most welcome.  If there is a way to pull the data from the Form Library to place it in a List, I could entertain that solution but I'm not sure where I would start with that either.

    Easiest would be to use qRules - it has this ability and much more - you won't have to write code or deal with CAML. We'll have another free trial of 4.3 up soon that you can try, or email me via the forum if you'd like a trial copy sooner and I can get you one.
