InfoPath Dev

 If the formula of the default values for each instance of the Repeating Table are the same, should not be a problem. Currently I am having problem where for different instance the default value formula need to be different. Seems InfoPath just cannot handle this, isn't it?

When you set default value to constants, same field of each instance could be set different values respectively. BUT when you use a formula(I needed to copy over a value from another field) as the default value of a field, it spreads into ALL the other instances/rows of the repeating table! Any way we could get around this? As you could see in ...

 I am considering adding a Repeating Table for our Budget InfoPath form. Our business user has a long list of different Revenue Sources, and would like to use the form to track the Budgeted Revenue and Actuals.
