Re: Interesting but annoying discrepency between repeating table as displayed in InfoPath and SharePoint

Oh you bet, sorry about the bad news.... I'd go with three data connections to the same list. I think that would work. And if you are using InfoPath 2010 or 2013, you can filter each list connection to only return the type of vendors you want to display (don't query on load, set the query field for vendor type to In-House, Panel or whatever it takes to know if agreements are terminated) then query - that way you only get back what you need. :)

Ah, well... dang it. That kind of blows up that setup. The list displays In-House vendors, then Panel vendors, then vendors whose agreements had terminated, as three different repeating tables from the same list. I guess I'll either have to make three lists or three data connections or something. Thanks ever so much.

Oh gosh, I have seen this bug in InfoPath forms services before - is the repeating table on the form in more than one location? When I've seen this, it is because the repeating table is on the form more than one time, and the only thing I've found that resolves it is to only have the table on the form one time....

Interesting but annoying discrepency between repeating table as displayed in InfoPath and SharePoint

I'm using an InfoPath form to display a list of vendors on a SharePoint page. The information is listed in a SharePoint list, with a URL field that was generated via another InfoPath form. The list of vendors is displayed in a repeating table on the InfoPath form, with several fields being displayed as well. The URLs are stored properly in the SharePoint list and there's no problem displaying them in InfoPath, however, when I port the form over to SharePoint, instead of listing all of the vendors names properly, it just repeats the first vendor for all of them. So, instead of listing Ardvark, Bat, and Cat, it just lists Ardvark three times. The URLs and supporting information is accurate for each vendor, it's just an issue with the name displayed as part of the URL. Does anyone know what's going on and/or how to fix this?

Please note that I have no access to the backend or SharePoint designer, so please limit any fixes to setup in the main cloud front end or InfoPath. Thank you so much for any help you could provide.
