Did you ever figure out how to accomplish this?

Using current() function with external data source in nested repeating sections

Ok, it's a little tricky to describe what I'm trying to do, but I'll do my best!

Given a repeating section, with a repeating section inside, I want to hide rows of the inner repeating section based on its contents matching the value of a field in the outer sections 'current()' row.

I've tested this, and managed to get it working using "current()/../../my:test"

But that was just the test. The problem is that in my ultimate solution what I'm trying to do is have a local repeating section, but the inner repeating section is from an external data source.

So what I need to know is if it's possible to refer to the local repeating section as 'parent' of the external data source rows. Or more simply, how do I refer to the value of a text field in a repeating section, from within a row in a nested external data source?

I'm using Infopath 2003 by the way.
