Thanks Hilary for the support Attached the pic to illustrate. Reason we want this is, we want it to be such like a report. So at the end of day... our user can print out the form listing which contains all information.

Yes, this is a limitation of promoted fields and repeating data. You could also use code, qRules or CAML to write your repeating data out to another list. I have heard of people using workflow for this as well, but have never tried that myself.

Say if i have : No Name Position 1 Michael ED 2 PC Woo CEO 3 Lee Anz Business Development Manager 4 Angz Wiz Project Manager 5 Alex G Assistant Business Development Manager 6 Sallg Planner 7 Frank QA Manager I can't list all 7 Name and Position in list. "You cannot promote rows of a repeating table to SharePoint, because SharePoint does not support the repeating table data structure. Since you can only promote one value to SharePoint, InfoPath provides functions you can use to promote repeating table data. You can choose to: Promote the amount of rows (so a number) to SharePoint. Promote the first repeating field in the repeating table to SharePoint. Promote the last repeating field in the repeating table to SharePoint. Promote all of the values of a column in a repeating table as one merged field. The values from each repeating field in one column will then appear as multiple lines of text in SharePoint." All name and position will be scrambled up into 1 field and looks ugly

Okay, so I think you are saying the field you want isn't available in your form library. You need to promote the field when you publish. If you want to see all the selections, you can select the Merge function. You can find some more info here: http://www.bizsupportonline.net/blog/2014/promote-infopath-form-fields-to-sharepoint-library.htm

Hi - I don't understand the question. Can you maybe attach your form or a screenshot under the Options tab in a reply?
