Thank you Qazi but I can't open the attachment. The computer I'm on doesn't have InfoPath and the one that does, I can't access the Forums. Could you post into the message please?

Thanks,

Laura

Repeating table - restricting duplicate entries

Laura B — Tue, 04 May 2010 02:01:51 GMT

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone could help.. I looked around and could not find a similar post. I'm trying to do a validation for duplicates in my repeating table, but it's based on two values per row. It doesn't seem like it should be overly difficult.. I just can't seem to figure it out at this point.

I'm using InfoPath 2003. My repeating table has one text field which is a drop-down (Mytext) and a date field (Mydate), and some other text fields which are not an issue. I think I have to concatenate the value from a drop-down and the date that's on the table. Where I'm getting confused is whether this is XPath expression (in the drop-down?) or if I need script (I'm using VBScript)? Is it For each.. Next? I'm not really familiar with the syntax & navigating the nodes yet, although I have managed to write some script successfully.. but this one (the last thing to complete my form) has me stumped.

**********************************************************************************************************************************

Here's an example of acceptable entries (ABC and GHI are each on table twice, but dates are different so it's ok):

Mytext Mydate

ABC 2010-01-01

GHI 2010-02-01

DEF 2010-01-01

GHI 2010-01-01

ABC 2010-02-01

**************************************************************************************

Here's an example of unacceptable (ABC is on table twice with same date):

ABC 2010-01-01

DEF 2010-01-01

ABC 2010-01-01

GHI 2010-02-01

GHI 2010-01-01

Thanks,

Laura
