Sections need to be bound to fields or groups. It is just the way InfoPath works....

Of course, you can bind a section to one of the fields you are using for data instead of adding another field or group specifically for it.

Why? It has nothing to do with any data... Is there no way to have a section that is just for presentation purposes?

Hi,

Yes, you need to bind that section to one control in data source and add the conditional formatting to that control.

I have a repeating section (and sometimes 2 or 3 levels deep) and I just want to add a section control, so I can do a show/hide some controls based on a checkbox. The problem is that whenever I try to add one it forces me to try to bind it to something in my datasource. Any thoughts on how I can accomplish this?
