There is one more place you have to pay attention to and probably missed. Double click on your checkbox control (not the field but form control). Make sure the "Value when cleared" is false and "Value when checked" is true.

Hi Alec,

I got what you said and i changed the Xpath for the middle "Clear" field with the full path and for the other i left it as it is "../my:Clear". But when i try to preview the form it was giving me an error like this.

"An error occured in the forms rules or Code. The number of rule actions or number of calls to the onAfterChange event for a single update in the data exceeded the maximum limit. The rules or code may be causing infinite loop. To prevent this, ensure that the rule action or event handler does not update the data which causes the same rule action or event handler to execute."

This happened when i try to hit insert row in the preview mode with out selecting the first row's check box. When i try to select the first row check box then i was not able to select the checkbox of the first row.

Thanks,

Kalyan.

Ok. I'll try. But before just one question. Did you pressed "fx" button and then check "Edit XPath (advanced)" checkbox before copying problem expression? By looking at expession in the "(advanced)" view you can cleary see the difference in referencing.

In my form first and third entries of rStarter field looks like: ../my:rStarter

the second entry of the same field looks totally different: /my:myFields/my:CheckG/my:rStarter

The difference between relative and absolute referencing is that relative paths you could get by just picking up field for the absolute referencing you got to right click at node you are going to reference in absolute way and choose "copy XPath". Then paste that path in "fx" popup window at the right location.

>Default value of "Check" field is (Clear=max(Clear) and (Clear != 0))

Here could be your problem. If you look at actual XPath of that expression you will see Clear field having different referencing depending on what we going to do. First and third entries are relative references second is absolute one.

Hi Alec,

I have seen your form it is working but when i replicate the same rules and values in my form mine is not working i don't know why it's not working. Can you explain the rules i am missing any.

I have a repeating table

myFields

-group1

-group2(Repeating)

-Check

-Clear

Rules for "Check"

if ("Check" is not equal to flase)

then set field's value of "Clear" =2 and set field's value of "Clear" =1.

Default value of "Check" field is (Clear=max(Clear) and (Clear != 0))

Checked on update this value when the result of the formula is recalculated.

Default value of "Clear" is "0".

Data types of both the field's are Text(String).

Please help on this, This is very important for me.

Thanks,

Kalyan.

The word "form" is hyperlinked, isn't it?

While trying to upload the form in the central admin it was throwing an error exactly like this,

"Operation is not valid due to the current state of the object".

Thanks,

Hi Jimmy,

I am having a problem for this workaround, sorry for the late question. But i found this problem yesterday.

But according to your post, I can save it in the manifest.xsf and i am able to use it in the preview mode. When ever i save the manifest.xsf template to XSN and try to publish this form into the portal (Because it is a web based form), It was throwing me an error straight away.

Is there any problem for this workaround in browser enabled forms?

Can we make this possible in browser enabled forms?

Thanks,

Jimmy.
