All, Thanks for the response. I have executed this - a data connection with drop down lists. However, they must be repeating - I want these to not be in the repeating table. A better example might be a totals at the bottom of a timesheet to show regular and overtime total hours for the week. How can I get these fields to populate w/o being bound to a field in the repeating list? Thanks - hope this makes it clearer. Kent

By the sound of it you'd a Section for your Employee Name,Department,Job Title,Manager etc.

You'll need a data connection which can reference your employees and their employee id. Then one of your fields in your repeating table can be filtered by your employee id.

Infopath Binding / Repeating Sharepoint List

All,

After spending hours discovering the disadvantages of Document Libraries, I discovered repeating lists in SharePoint. However, I need to create some fields that are not repeating in my InfoPath form. I am (attempting to create) a timesheet - non repeating fields being totals for the employee's reference, ect.

How to I create the node needed to have unbound fields in my InfoPath form. Or can I do this?

Is possible to link these into the repeating list? For example an employee ID with each item.

Thanks,

Kent
