Well - you need to take a look at the rules on the group name and team leader name. You need to look at the filter on the team leader drop down choices. You need to look at how the drop downs are set up.

Thanks for double checking - I must have saved that in two places. This is the one I wanted you to try. :)

You might check the file you sent because it is identical to the first one. all drop downs on all fields. gives me the exact same results as before Yesterdays. I downloaded it twice and yup it is the same as before.

Is this the same form from my last sample? Because I added rules and changed some of your drop downs to text boxes, etc - I don't see that in the screenshot in your slide. Can you send a screenshot from trying the form sample I last attached?

Yup, super helpful - thanks! I'll make some changes to your form later today (my morning is a little busy, so may be afternoon) and put up a copy for you to try.

Okay. I've attached a copy of your form with some minor changes. Can you save the file locally, right click the file, and select design, then select Preview to preview the form. From there, could you take some screenshots that show what the data in the secondary data sources (the repeating tables I added) looks like so I can get an idea of what your source data is?

That was the only way that I could get it to populate the fields correctly. I goal was to be able to pull down the team member drop down choose a name have it then fill in the GMID,Dept. and shift. Then pull the Group leader name and fill his or her GMIN in. the rest are just selection fields and they work great. The ultimate goal this was to have it submit into access into a table and append each new form filled out. OR have it save in XML and manually import the data into a spreadsheet. This is where I saw that it was not bringing in the data that was showing in the header fields into the XML.then import that table to access, so I can get reports from the data we receive. hope you follow that.

Also - I'm not sure if this is intentional - you seem to have a lot of controls bound to the same fields?

Any chance you can provide a little more info? So, your issue is still that you want the things that are displayed in the drop downs to be present in your XML?
