InfoPath Dev

Hi,

I'm trying to validate user input in text box with SharePoint list data, but it doesn't work, probably because I'm missing something. I tried it in two ways. First, I put a condifiton in Data Validation of the text box as "FormField1 is equal to SharePointListField1" and typed some text in Screen Tip. But it didn't catch it when I previewed in InfoPath. I also tried to use a rule instead of built-in validation. I set a condition for the rule as "FormField1 is equal to SharePointListField1", and as an Action I put 'Set a field's value' with a Field name as FormField1 and left the Value empty. This should clear the text box whenever user enters text in FormField1, which is the same in SharePoint list column.

I actually tried to implemented what I found in this forum. The explanations were clear, but somehow it does not work for me. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,

Ok guys, I found the problem. Secondary data connection to SharePoint list had "Include data for the active form only" checked. I unchecked it and now it works fine with both Data Validation and the Rule ways of validating text box user inputs. Thanks!
