Hi All:

 In one of my repeater table I have a dropdown column. The dropdown list has a hard coded list of possible values where the first item is the default item.

I have a requirement to default the first row only to a value other than the default value as specified in the hard coded list.

 I tried setting up a rule that sets the value to my desired value but it seems to get overwritten with the default value of the hard coded list.

 Any ideas how to achive this ?

 Thanks a lot in advance.

I might have found a solution myself.

 I created a rule to set the default value to something different than the default value at Form Load instead of connected to the actual dropdown. It seems to work.

 if you have bettter solution please let me know.

thanks.
