    validated a data field against a list.

    Hello, I am fairly new to Infopath development but I have been learning a lot lately. What I have is form for the input of a product. There is a brand, a product, and a container drop down that are referenced from an Access Database table. I have a field that is the concatenation of these three fields to query for a SKU product number. I can send this data up and then reload with a query of the info I am submitting, but what I am trying to do is compare that concatenation against a table to see if it is a real product before I submit it. I think what I am trying to do is input a parameter to a query, which I don't think I can do with Access, I think I need SQL or a Sharepoint web services (which right now is not an option). Maybe there is a web to have a static list in the form that I can compare the datafield to, for the condition of a rule? Any help would be greatly appreciated, we are a small business and I wear a lot of hats.

    You could write some code in your InfoPath form to do a filtered Access DB query by sending it a parameter.
