Hi Kip,
Why are you adding 3 posts for this. One ought to do no? Anyway, I am a bit confused by your description. I assume you are trying to connect to SQL form the InfoPath form and write the partnumber to a column in a row in a table in the database. Is that correct? Do you have a relational schema for your SQL database? How are you creating a relational database for this project? Have you looked at our Database Accelerator. It will allow you to save data to SQL and use it as a store for all of your forms. I look forward to hearing more from you about your problem.
