Reply Contact Hi. Hope someone can help. I have a few combo boxes with formatting rules. However, these rules are not displayed in the Rule Manager pane. I know the rules are still there since it is applied when I test the form and I see it in the xsl file. Does anyone know how to get the rules to be displayed again? Thanks in advance! 08-18-2013 03:57 PM In reply to Patrick Halstead Joined on 08-08-2006 Posts 5,112 Re: Formatting rules does not display for control? Mark as Not AnswerMark as Answer... Reply Contact Do they show up in Rule Inspector? Sometimes, for a repeating section, the rules will be bound to the actual repeater. For a combo box, though, should just be control. If you select and click Manage Rules, they should be there.

That is why this error is so strange. My last resort will be to delete the control and create it a again, but really hoping there is a solution. 08-25-2013 04:32 PM In reply to Patrick Halstead Joined on 08-08-2006 Posts 5,112 Re: Formatting rules does not display for control?
