Still not quite what I was looking for. Let me see if I can explain a bit more. 1) user fills out a form that populates a document library
2) user needs to modify one of these files
3) I have a data connection that retrieves the users data that is in the document library
4) using an InfoPath form with that data connection I want to present them a drop down list that has two of the data items - job number & description.
5) from that list i want them to select one and the retrieved data needs to show up
6) user modifies a couple of the data items
7) data is submitted back into the document library as a new form
When I tried the methods shown above, the secondary data connection (retieval) will not let me make it the master table. so it cannot link to the repeating section.
