I wish I signed up to the forum earlier - you&amp;#39;d have saved me hours of googling.

I had come to that conclusion, and am now trying to write the values into another field to then utilise in Nintex instead (hopefully), as I&amp;#39;ve managed to do something similiar with Nintex for loops before.

Really appreciate having this confirmed and the clarity on why.</description></item><item><title>Re: Infopath rule to set a lookup field's value</title><link>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/121531.aspx</link><pubDate>Tue, 17 Sep 2019 16:41:57 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">033a2e2d-04e2-4a9d-be01-a4634161eefd:121531</guid><dc:creator>Hilary Stoupa</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/121531.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=41&amp;PostID=121531</wfw:commentRss><description>It isn&amp;#39;t possible, and here&amp;#39;s why. The data structure for a multi-select is repeating. InfoPath includes one blank instance by default - when you select or deselect items in your multi-select, nodes are added or removed. If you preview your form and select a few options, then use File &amp;gt; Save As to save the file, you can open the XML in a text editor, look for the field bound to the multi-select and see what I mean. InfoPath has no built in way to use rules to add (or delete) instances of a repeating node.</description></item><item><title>Infopath rule to set a lookup field's value</title><link>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/121530.aspx</link><pubDate>Tue, 17 Sep 2019 16:26:56 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">033a2e2d-04e2-4a9d-be01-a4634161eefd:121530</guid><dc:creator>jtaylor025</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/121530.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=41&amp;PostID=121530</wfw:commentRss><description>I want to set multiple values in a lookup based on information entered earlier in the form.

I&amp;#39;ve been round and round the internet reading articles and not getting anywhere.

I can get all the individual ID values out of filters and other rules, but I can&amp;#39;t seem to write the values into the muliple value lookup. 

Whatever I try I only ever seem to be able to write the first value into the lookup. 

Is it possible with an Infopath &amp;#39;set field&amp;#39;s value&amp;#39; rule, or am I wasting my time?</description></item></channel></rss>
