I think the namespace prefix for display name is pc. Use pc:DisplayName instead of my:DisplayName.

Hilary,

Thats awesome. I couldn't find the difference in quote. But still experiencing problem, below is the Repeating table field with the People picker

So if i use now I am using the formula as

eval(eval(Person, 'concat(my:DisplayName, ",")'), "..")

The error I am getting is

"../my:PermitEntrantList/my:PermitEntrants/my:PermitEntrant/pc:Person/my:DisplayName" does not point to a valid location path of a field or group.

Your help is very greatly appreciated.

See where the two arrows are pointing to the "smart" quote? replace it with a normal double quote. You want ".."

Hilary,

I tried

eval(eval(Person,'concat(DisplayName, ",")'), “..")

But I am getting error

Unexpected character.
eval(eval(../my:PermitEntrantList/my:PermitEntrants/my:PermitEntrant/pc:Person,'concat(../my:PermitEntrantList/my:PermitEntrants/my:PermitEntrant/pc:Person/pc:DisplayName, ",")'), -->“<--..")

When you promote a repeating field, you have options - you can select merge.

Repeating table and the calculated value

Hello Experts

In a Infopath form I am using a repeating table which has the people picker inside to enter the list of employees in to the form.

I need to promote the list of employees entered in to the Entrants of form, so that when the form is filled out email is sent to them.

When I directly promote the people picker inside the repeating table it shows like

I am assuming only the first name will be promoted. How can I promote all the people entered in the form. I am a newbie and struggling with this. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
