InfoPath Dev

I need help with the following:

• How to add a list from an excel file into infopath drop-down list box.
• How to set up a rule for a particular field to be a 8 digit number.
• How to add a an excel table into infopath.

Thanks in advance for your input.   Carlos.

Hi Carlos,

1. Save the Excel as XML format and add it as a secondary data source to your InfoPath form.

2. Add a validation rule to match a pattern with d\d\d\d\d\d\d\d as the pattern

3. Same as #1. Or, you could export it to a SharePoint list and connect to the list instead. Qdabra also have an XLS to XML tool which automatically creates multiple XMLs for rows and worksheets in your XLS.

Good luck!
