InfoPath Dev

 I am slowly building an election software project in SharePoint 2010 and using InfoPath 2010. My first step is to input who is on the ballot for a specific election. For instance, there are 3 people running for vice president so I have a repeating table with 3 names in it.The names are submitted to an InfoPath form library in SharePoint. The "other" fields (those NOT in the repeating table) I can add as columns in the SharePoint list when I submit from InfoPath. But I don't think I can add the repeating table values as columns in the library.

 Eventually, I have to get those 3 names out of  the repeating table form and put them either in another InfoPath form for the actual election or get them to a SharePoint list and access the names from a list.

 I have seen a lot of talk about using code to read repeating tables. I would like to steer clear of code if possible. But if I have to use code, what do I use to write the code and where is the code written? More importantly, is there a way without code to access those repeating table values?

 Basically, how can I get to the repeating table values?

It sounds like you need to write the data to a SharePoint list (since it's repeating).

Here's one article on this website:

Another option would be to use qRules. There's a free trial on Qdabra.com and a walkthru here:

Then you can have a data connection to the list(s) to retrieve the individual items as needed.

 That wasn't exactly the answer but it made me think of another way to do things. Thanks
