Kaylan and Shilpa: thanks a lot for your feedback.
Shilpa, that's exactly what I want to do. The proble is, I don't know how to do it. I have some knowledge on VB and C# code. But on Infopath I don't know how to implemented. For example how to make reference to the rules on code.
Is there a tutorial or something on this site that can help me do this?
Thanks again for your time and support. Keep the good work.

Hello
Welcome to Infopath forums

If you are going to use only Infopath designer then you should repeat the process of setting rules to every row. Else you can use Code and declare all the rules and create a method and using an on after change on the drop down call the method everytime the value in the drop down changes.

Hi and welcome to the forums,
Do u have these rows in the repeating table or normal
If it is in the repeating table,we can set rules only once, if it is not in the repeating table then we have to set all rules for each row.

Hope this helps!

Run same rules on multiples dropdown controls

Galford — Tue, 13 Feb 2007 14:20:10 GMT

I have a form that has 12 rows. On each row i have 3 dropdown lists and 1 text box. I want to set the text box field based on the values selected on the 3 dropdown. I know how to set the value on tlhe text box using rules.
The problem is that I have multiples rules (17 to be exact) on the third dropdown (the one i use to set the text box value) I used the same rules for each row.

Do I have to set all 17 rules on each third dropdown list for every row?????

Example of rules: if x=1 and y=1 and z= 1 or 2 or 3; set value to "Low"
Thanks for the help
