Hello GemenZ,

Sorry to hear you've been losing sleep over this matter. It is possible to conditionally hide certain rows within a repeating section, but I'm not graspoing the logic you have at work here. For example, why would selecting 1 in the second dropdown cause section 2 to be hidden? What's the logic behind that?

Hi,

I have a doc that has the following fields:

[Drop down list 1] - values 0, 1, 2
[Drop down list 2] - values 0, 1, 2
etc.

[Repeating Section]
- Field A
- Field B

I have total of 10 sections, let's say there names are 1, 2, .., 10. So, my repeating section place will look like this:

[Repeating Section - 1]
- Field A
- Field B
[Repeating Section - 2]
- Field A
- Field B
...
[Repeating Section - 10]
- Field A
- Field B

Now. I would like to set the "Field B" to "false" based on the "Drop down list 2"=1, which would hide the [Repeating Section - 2]. The result is woul be the following:

[Drop down list 1] - values 0, 1, 2
[Drop down list 2] - selected option with value 1

[Repeating Section - 1]
- Field A
- Field B
[Repeating Section - 2] - this sections should be hidden and not displayed
- Field A
- Field B = false
...
[Repeating Section - 10]
- Field A
- Field B

I am new to InfoPath. I know this should be relatively simple, but I've already spent 2 days after work with no food, beer and sex.. It started getting to me... I can make all repeating sections hide, but I can't make that one single one be hidden. I started thinking that the Universe does not work that way and I would need to add aother section for my needs, but I am pretty confident there is a way to achieve what I am trying to achieve...
