Hello Virgul,
I'm not sure if i fully understood the issue so let me put it my own words and you can correct me if i have it wrong.

You have a data connection to a Webservice. This is a Recieve data connection and you get data from the Web service that you now want to use to populate a dropdown in the UI?

To do this in the Dropdown properties you need to select the third option "Look up values in a data connection to a database ....", choose the appropriate data conection and then map the Entries, Value and Display ame to the data that you want to see in the dropdown.

Hope this helps!

Ok thanks for your answer and sorry for my late reply!

What I want to do is on a button click:

Call a webservice with C# not with infopath design mode! I am ok for That!

receive an answer and catch him! ok

Now I have a XMLDocument that contain the value of what I whant in my Dropdown listebox:

<text>
<content>Marcel</content>
<content>Henry</content>
<content>Bernard</content>
</text>

Now how to do (with a C# code) for put this my listebox (location: /my:Case/my:Name)?

I hope you understand!

Thanks a lot for your help!

Hi,
You need to copy this XMLDocument to a dataconecction which is actually binded to the dropdown in the designer.

So you need to maintain a secondary data connection which binds to the dropdown and you need to Copy the data to that dataconnection with help of c#/Managed code.

There are some posts in this forum about how to copy data into a dataconnection with the help of c# code.

Hope this Helps!

Hi,

Thanks a lot !

It's very strange that you can directly populate the primary database with the XMLDocument! But it's like this!
