Yup, so this is theoretically possible - which you just found out. That's the issue w/ using something like the list ID in the form name - they both queried the library before the submit happened and ended up w/ the same number.

So - is this a list form? Regardless, you could use a secondary XML data source for the initial selections, and only use the "real" field for the final selection. Please see the attached example. Save the file locally. Right click and select design. Then you can preview and give it a try, and see that there is only one field in the main ...
