Hi there,
I have a repeating table where the user can select an item from a listbox. The listbox values are populated by a secondary datasource and filtered based on the location selected by the user.
Is there a way to allow for multiple selections? I need to submit the selected items back to SQLServer when the user submits the form...
I have tried to use a custom control (Smart Combo Box) but it doesn't allow for the filtering that I need...

You would have to copy your listbox values from the secondary data source into your main DOM in a repeating list, and have another field which would be your boolean value for the check box. By checking off check boxes next to items you could select multiple items. This will involve some coding.

Hope this helps.

What kind of coding is required to copy data from secondary data source to main DOM? Can we use Java script or do we have to write managed code?

I am unable to access main DOM from javascript? Do you have any code snippet for the same?

Thanks...
