    Correct Filtering of Drop-Down Menu to match DB Entry

    I've been working on modifying an InfoPath form and I've run into a problem I can't quite solve.

    I have a drop-down list which takes values from a data list I have stored in InfoPath. Based on the category selected, only certain parts should appear, and that is working.

    However, when the user selects the item they want to have displayed (for which the pricing data should be retrieved) it is not pulling that item's data. Instead, it is pulling the data for the very first item in the list, regardless of the category selected. It continually goes to the very first item.

    I'm trying to figure out what might be causing it - the data connection, the filtering, the default values - but I can quite figure it out. Have any of you experienced something similar or know offhand what I might be doing incorrectly? The connections appears to be correct, it's just a matter of pulling in the right information associated with the user's choice that I can't seem to fix.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    Can you provide the schema of the data source and filter what you are using.

    I found the error - the filters I was using weren't pointing to my data table, but were pointing to the field in offline data. I fixed it and the filter now works.

     

    Thanks!
