InfoPath Dev

I have a Repeating Choice Group that contains the following four choice sections (in order):

scenario
topic
demotopic
activity

My data source looks like this:

<choice maxOccurs="unbounded">
<element name="scenario" type="prl:scenarioType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" />
<element name="topic" type="prl:topicType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
<element name="demotopic" type="prl:demotopicType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
<element name="activity" type="prl:activityType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
</choice>

The problem is that when I insert the repeating choice group, it makes topic the default choice section and I want scenario to be the default choice section. How can I change the default?

Thanks,

Its easy once you know where to look...

1. In the designer, choose Default Values from the Tools menu.
2. Expand the DOM tree to your choice group.
3. Expand your choice group.
4. Select the radio button for the default choice, and then click OK.

Worked like a charm! Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Great. Glad to have helped! And welcome to the InfoPathDev forums!

Hi Carolyn,

 

I am trying to link a drop down list box in my InfoPath From to a choice type column in SharePoint. I was just browsing the forum and I found your post. I was wondering if your source is used for something similar. I am pretty new to InfoPath and have only created some CAML to submit to a list in SharePoint.

Thanks!
