You may have to set the value of the field with a rule. Select the repeating section and add an action to set field value when changes. then on each row insert it will add 1 to that value.

Try the following:

Change the security level on the InfoPath template

Go to Tools -> Form Options -> Security and Trust
Clear the checkbox “Automatically determine security level(recomended)”
Select the radio button “Full trust”

Hope it works

I am attempting to perform that very task in my code.

so far I have

           foreach (XPathNavigator category in MainDataSource.CreateNavigator().Select("my:myFields/my:Categories/my:Category",NamespaceManager))
            {
                foreach (XPathNavigator responsibility in category.Select("my:myFields/my:Responsibilities/my:Responsibility",NamespaceManager))
                {
                    responsibility.SelectSingleNode("my:IsExpanded").SetValue("true()");
                }
            }

to expand out a nested node.

My problem is, I get a System.Security.SecurityException with an error of 'Request Failed' on the first line. I have tried for a few hours now different values for that xpath query, but everything seems to throw a SecurityException.

I read somewhere that if I have VS2008 installed, then I need to set me assembly in partial trust mode. Does anyone know how to get rid of these ridiculous securityexceptions???

Yes, it's one place that's really lacking in InfoPath: the ability to elegantly deal with repeating structures via rules. Maybe the next major release...

Hey Greg,

I was hopping that there is a easy way with the InfoPath GUI but now I'am sure - there is no.

Thanks for your answer. I'am going to write C# code now ;)

Rules can only populate single values. If you want to do repeating rows of data, you will need to write code to iterate through the table, adding rows as appropriate, and filling in the row field values.

Set values in fields of a repeating table

Hello everyone,

I have one questions related to set vaules in a repaeating table:

I want to set (in a browser enabled form) a repeating table with values. My InfoPath form has a secondary data source as SQL-Server table. Next I have a drop down menu in the form. In order to change the value in the drop down menu, the repeating table must be updated with informations from the SQL Server table.

Currently I can do this with one field (Rules -> Set value of a field) - how is this possible with a whole repeating table? And, the secondary data source must be filtered before is set to the repeating table.

Has anyone ideas?
Thanks!
