Hi Jay662,

Have you tried the mergetext aggregation function? In the promoted properties dialog there's a dropdown and you can select merge or merge text. I forgot the exact name.

In general, SharePoint does not support repeating structures well. Eventually, you will need to move your data to SQL. Qdabra has a very inexpensive Web Service (DBXL) that enables that. The trial is also free. Then, you can use a data view to group the repeating data.

Guys,

I have my form pretty much completed however I am having trouble promoting the additional repeating sections to a SharePoint Form Library.

On the repeating section I have a text field and when adding additional information a user will insert a new Item.

is there any easy way to include this additional information on the SharePoint form library?

Also, I have a workflow that runs when a member of staff is selected by an Esclated To field, this sends them a job number and a description of the job. Is there any way to include the additional repeating text box?

thanks!
