this is what I've got so far. I've created two formula controls to pull the total value for the selected vendor and the selected SO. I don't think I need these numbers to save to SharePoint, so I'm not concerned about binding them. Can i use these values in a calculation? I was thinking that I might like to show totals for all ...

I'm assuming at this point you have a form? Or you would not be getting this message? Can you let me see the form itself, instead of screenshots of the lists?

Is this a picture control? Or do you just need to have a picture in your form? For the second scenario, I'd use Insert > Picture (or Online Picture if it is uploaded someplace everyone has permissions to). See screenshot.

hi Hilary, attached are a screen of the three lists, vendor lookups up to SO, and callup does a lookup to both. the form itself doesn't have any modifications yet, other than a calculated field to sum call-up totals. I'm trying to filter it, but I think i'm doing it wrong because it keeps telling me i'm using a control that needs ...

I'm trying to place a picture in my form as a reference for some other controls. All I get is a small box with a black square and a white "X".

You'll need to add a query data connection to your call up list so when in the form a vendor and contract are selected, you can query for the existing call up records. If you use query fields in your data connection and set those to your selected vendor and contract prior to querying, you won't ...

Hi Hilary, thank you so much, I'll do that shortly. honestly, I haven't built the form yet, I'm still sorting out my columns and have been doing some google research to see if what I want is even possible.

Is there any chance I can see your form? You can attach it under Options in a reply - or email me via the forum, I'll reply and you can send it via email. It is just SO much easier for me to understand when I can see the form.

Hi Hilary, thanks, i've posted a brief description of what i'm trying to do, would love any suggestions you might have. I just tried filtering this out, but the design checker told me I'm using something only available in repeating tables, does filtering a column sum only work in repeating tables, I'm hoping i just did it ...
