my:SectionA[count(../my:SectionA)] should do the trick, but for this purpose, my:SectionA[last()] should work just as well.

There is something that I simply can't understand:

count(SectionA) => number returned, OK!

my:SectionA[1]/my:FieldB => Field value returned, OK!

my:SectionA[count(SectionA)]/my:FieldB => The formula contains one or more errors; how is that possible?!

Considering the same case as above:

I'm instantly in another problem; How come following XPath code doesn't work:

../my:SectionX/my:SectionY/my:RepeatingsectionA[count(../my:SectionX/my:SectionY/my:RepeatingsectionA)]/my:SectionB/my:SectionC/my:CCnumber

I need to make this section row numbering variable

Jimmy my saviour, thanks! The spaces and slashes we generated automatically by infopath but using XPath did the trick. Hopefully this allows me to advance and fix the initial problem with database data connection query.

Try removing the spaces before and after the slashes. What's the exact formula you see when you click the Show XPath checkbox in the formula builder?

Hi Jimmy,

Thanks for your answer but I didn't get it to work yet.

My structure in the form is:

RepeatingsectionA

SectionB

SectionC

FieldD

Now, to test and display the value of FieldD in the second row of RepeatingsectionA, I created a text field and set default value Fx: RepeatingsectionA[2] / .. / FieldD but It returns only NaN (although I filled the second FieldD with numeric value). What I am doing wrong?

If my:GroupA is the name of your repeating group and my:FieldB is the name of the field you want to target, then the path to FieldB in the second row of GroupA would be

my:GroupA[2]/my:FieldB

The name of the second repeating section

Hello,

Simply question: If the name of the control in repeating section is "X", what is its name in the second repeating section? I mean, how I can refer to this control (and its value) in the second section?
