Well, if you wanted "all occurrences are not equal to x", for example... :)

Thank you so much!!! You saved me a deadline. When would you use "All occurrences of..."?

Great! So - in your condition, where you select the "Value" field in the first dropdown? Select the "select a field" option in that dropdown again, and when you select "Value" you should see a dropdown at the bottom of the field picker - you can select "any occurrence of". See attached screenshot.

It's a form submit rule It appears that the condition does not work.
Condition: Value = "Mobile Deice (Region & Employees only)" Is checking a multiple selction list box for a value(s) done differently?

What is the rule on? The value field? Or some other field?

HI, I hope someone can help me. I have been banging my head for a couple of days now.

I am using an infoPath 2013 form with SharePoint. I have a multiple selection list box with values "Software, Space (West Only), Workstation, Mobile Device (Region & Employees only)".

I created a rule with the following condition:

Condition: Value = "Mobile Deice (Region & Employees only)"

Rule type: Action

Run these actions:* Set a field's value: Status = "Pending"

Based on what the user selects from the multiple selection list box, a field in SharePoint should be updated. It does not work. Any ideas what I am doing wrong? Please help. It's driving me crazy!!
