It seems nothing works when my fields are linked back to the Access Database. </p><p><br />I&nbsp; will be referencing the data from Pit View for Office View such that OfficeView.RepeatingSection[x].DataField = PitView.RepeatingSection[x].DataField for all data fields and all sections.&nbsp; Any suggestions.<br /></p>
