what you have said about tables and rows has suddenly dropped a very large penny. I had never thought of groups being tables.

gpContactSelector should not be a repeating group. It is a table, and Person is the row. Only rows repeat, not the table itself. The group2 is repeating, so the things within it will repeat.

I followed your example, however I could only get it to work by making the grpContactSelector a repeating section as well.

But the good thing is that it is now working

thanks

I got it to work with the node structure in the attached image. Note the following things:

- The gpContactSelector table (non-repeating group) goes inside the group2 repeating section (repeating group)

- The extra field (Test) goes under group2 as well, which is at the same level as gpContactSelector

I was able to insert sections each with their own contact selector AND their own text box. I set the text box to default to the value of AccountId as a test, and it worked. It wasn't blank, and it didn't duplicate data.

What are you putting in this field, and how are you doing it?

Another contact picker question - repeating sections

I can get the contact picker working no problem, I can get itreading vlaues from AD no problem.

However on this form a have a repeating section and I cannot get it to work correctly.

My data structure is

My fields

Users (repeating section)

Person (repeating section)

DisplayName, AccountiD, AccountType

I have added a repeating section to the form and put the contact picker within it

I have tried putting my field which I want populated from AD in various places

under Person, Unders and under the root. The effect is the same wherever it is located:- no data in the field.

If I put it underneath my fields, then each time the contact picker is used that field does get a value in it, but as you would expect, each time I add a new section in and choose another person in contact pick this field is updated with the value from whichever picker was used last.

How do I get it so that I have one extra field per contact picker which is updated from AD every time the contact picker is selected.
