Thanks ErnestoM, that was perfect!! any ideas why field names in section properties would be greyed out? This was the reason I wanted to create a blank form so I could test if i could rename sections. Thank you.

Thanks Ernest, I should have mentioned, it is a browser form - is there a solution? Also, its not another drop down I want to populate, but data within my form...... thanks again, Neil

 If you created a blank, new form in InfoPath Designer, you can publish it to a SharePoint form library. For a list, you would need to make sure that the form is created based on the list. That's either done by clicking Customize form on the list, or by creating the form from the list (screenshot attached).

Customize and modify the form as desired, then File > Save and File > Publish. This will republish it to the SharePoint list. Good luck!

I have attached a template with how to check the size of attachments. It's approximate, so it will be off +/- 5% of actual size. The textbox would be a hidden field.  You would want to add a validation to the textbox that makes sure the number is less than 500000 (may want to make it 550000, since the number is approximate) See ...
