InfoPath Dev

Dear Experts,

What should I do if I would like to do like this:

I create a button called "Choose". When I click this, it will show another pop up window which is show the VENDOR ID and VENDOR NAME. which is 100 list. If I select one of them and double click on it, it will put that selected VENDOR NAME on the text field on the InfoPath form...called txtVendorName.

What should I do then?....Or maybe, you have another simple way....

Thank you for your kind helps...

Hi,
One way is to change your txtVendorName to a dropdown and bind the list to that dropdown. There is no use of choose button.

If your desing permit a dropdown then I think taskpane is the way to go.
When you click on the "Choose" button show the taskpane with VENDOR ID and VENDOR NAME values. Have a select button beside each of the row. Write code in such a that when you click on select button that button onclick code will copy data to the "txtVendorName" field.
