I can't think of any explanation for this behavior and would need to see your form and its code to come any closer to figuring it out.

So you know, qRules provides an Insert command that accomplishes what you are trying to do here, and uses a more reliable approach (your approach here, copying the last node of the group, will fail if the group is empty).

I also have a short blog post that describes another alternative:

An example would be a repeating table with each row containing a dropdown and a textbox. There are 6 rows in the table.

I have a button that adds a row to the table using the code above.

If I select a dropdown in row 3 so that it's background turns blue and then try to add another row the new row will get added after row 3, which had the dropdown selected.

If I don't select any row that the new row gets added to the bottom as expected.

It just seams that the [last()] method does not work if a row is selected.

Could you clarify what you mean by "selected?" I wouldn't think anything like that would have any bearing on this code's behavior.

Here is the piece of code I am using

XPathNavigator group = MainDataSource.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:InternalSection/my:InternalFloorSection/my:InternalFloorGroup/my:group86/my:group87[last()]", NamespaceManager);XPathNavigator NewRow = group.Clone();

group.InsertAfter(NewRow);

If I have a table with 6 rows and the 3rd row is selected and I try to add a new row using this code it will put it after the 3rd row which is selected instead of after the 6th row.

Hello,

I use the following code snippet to add a new row at the bottom of the table...

XPathNodeIterator currentItem = this.MainDataSource.CreateNavigator().Select("my:myFields/my:group1/my:group2", this.NamespaceManager);

for (int counter = 0; counter < currentItem.Count; counter++, currentItem.MoveNext()) ;

currentItem.Current.Clone().InsertAfter(currentItem.Current);

Hope that helps,

Regards,

It would help if you'd show us what your code actually looks like.

[last()] method in Infopath 2010 Repeating Tables Not Working

nollaig — Tue, 30 Aug 2011 16:45:16 GMT

Hi,

I have an Infopath 2010 form that run on the client.

I have a repeating table that I am adding and removing rows using c#. Everything works fine except for the position of the added row. I am using the [last()] method to get the last row and then insert the new row after this using InsertAfter(newRow).

The problem seems to be that the [last()] method is getting the row that is selected and then adding the new row after this.

Can anyone tell me how to get a handle on the last row so I an add new rows after this so they appear on the bottom of the repeating table.

Cheers.
