I think this article will be enough to get me started.

There should be plenty of samples floating around ye Olde Internet - here's one blog entry with 4 different approaches. :)

Hi Hilary,

Thank you very much for the reply, the number of rows for my requirement is varying.

So i'll have to settle for code.

Hi - this can be tricky, because InfoPath doesn't have any rules for inserting rows.

Your options are:

Code - this can be approached programmatically
qRules - the company I work for has an InfoPath add in that can help with this
Default values - if you know about how many max rows you'll be copying in, you can add that number of rows by default and add some rule based logic to populate values - I can put together a simple sample form for this if you think this approach might work for you.

I want to load data from a SharePoint list and display it in a repeating table, and allow the user to remove some rows where necessary.

Anyone with an idea on how i can do this?
