If you attach your form under the Options tab in a reply, I'll take a look. I'm having trouble understanding the issue from your description, I'm afraid.

Anybody have any idea? HELP!!!

Cascading dropdowns return ID not title to SharePoint

stephrose — Sat, 14 Nov 2015 00:00:35 GMT

We have SharePoint & InfoPath 2010 and the issue I am having is with the data returned to SP from the cascading drop downs on the InfoPath form.

I have 2 cascading drop downs that feed from lists within SP, Courses and Lessons. The Courses list is simply a list of course names while Lessons has a lesson column and a lookup column referencing the course names.

Everything looks correct in the InfoPath form, the 1st drop down, Courses, feeds the 2nd drop down Lessons. However, when the data is submitted to SP it shows the Course ID not Title and shows Lessons correctly. To get the Lesson drop down to populate I had to set Course Value to Id and Display Name to Title. I know there must be something simple that I am missing. HELP!!!
