    How to repeat a Data Connection in a repeating section?

    In InfoPath form, in a repeating section I put two drop down lists, first one have some predefined items, and the second one obtains data from a Web Service (through data connection), which uses the value of the first drop down list selection as the parameter. The items populated in the second drop down list will depend on the selected value of the first drop down list.

    This way for a single section works great.

    The problem is, when runtime user adds an item on the repeating section, and this will come up with a second section with another 2 drop down lists. When I change the first drop down list in the second section, the items in the second drop down list in the first section will change as well, together with the second drop down list in the second section. That is to say, the data connection is shared by 2 sections.

    Is there any solution that can repeat the data connection? Thanks.

    Jeff.

    Hi Jeff,

    My first thought on this is that you have an issue with the schema of the form - the way you have structured the repeating section is leading to this?  Can you put your schema in a post for that section so I can see it?

    I want to send you the screenshots of my form, but can you tell me how to upload pictures in this forum?

    The "Insert/edit image" button seems not able to upload files from my local machine, :(.
