InfoPath Dev

Hello,

I have a form which has several cascading dropdownlists. I used to have them set up on secondary data sources and they would retreive data whenever the form was opened.

However, I had to switch them to the primary data source and now they don't contain anything, and I can't seem to figure out how to populate them.

How can I populate a dropdown list that's based on a field in the primary data source?

Thanks for any help,

Hi Torrwin and welcome to the forum!

First you might want to check out these HowTos:http://www.infopathdev.com/howto/tutorials/default.aspx?s=Lists

If you are still having trouble after that could you provide a little more information about your schema, the number of cascading drop-downs and what kind of filtering you are trying to do?

If you goto Tools, Form Options, Open and Save, Open Behavior, Rules, you can then add a rule to query the main data connection as the form opens

Infopath never quieries the main data connection when opening unless it is told to using this section

Stavi,

That worked great! Thank you very much!
