    Repeating table from bulleted list

    My existing form includes a bulleted list for the user to populate project objectives. I am trying to add a repeating table at the end that lists all the objectives from the bulleted list with a check-box beside each objective (the user checks the ones that were completed). I managed to create a repeating table bound to the bulleted list, but I cannot make the checkboxes repeat properly. Is this possible? Thanks!

    Well, I'd guess the schema is an issue here - I'm thinking you'd need two fields instead of one. One to bind the checkbox to, and one for the initial objectives. Is this form currently in use? If not, you could change the schema to use a repeating group with one field for the user to enter the objectives and another that was True / False for the checkbox. I'm attaching a simple sample. Since we can't bind a field in a repeating group to a bulleted list control type, I'm sort of faking that with a repeating section.

    Thanks so much for your help, Hilary! Faking the bulleted list with a repeating table works for my purpose - for the existing forms, I'll just copy over the content of the old field manually.
