When Position Title changes, you are setting the main data souce CourseTitle field to itself? Instead, you will want to set it to the secondary data source field that contains the correct course title. But, when I look at your secondary data sources, neither of them include the CourseTitle? Is that in the Training 2012 List? Walk through the ...

Sky, that's quite an open ended question - but I will try to give you a few ideas.  You should first and foremost learn how to use the InfoPath tool itself before delving into the code-behind.  This is a good forum to gain some more detail.  Go pick up a book or find some tutorials by searching on Google.  If you plan to ...

You can use msxsl:format-date().  This will only work on the client however.

This question may be a year old, but I thought I'd share my fix for these. I simply had to change those thick ugly red borders. Use the XMLFormView Web part when displaying your new web based Infopath form.  There are some great tutorials on this. I think this one's very good: ...

Hmmm I believe you have run into a pain point encountered by many people.  This is a limitation in SharePoint with the merge function.  I don't believe there is an easy workaround to parse out the fields.  Perhaps you can put your own delimiter as part of the value that you are displaying in the MSLB?  There would be alot ...

Yes, I was wrong there.  I created a brand-new form.  What I had done on the old form was causing me confusion.  I mapped my data connection, then dragged my first 2 data source columns into the brand new form.  I changed these to drop-down lists - they work great. Then I used the walkthrough on this post ...

I'm trying to use an expression box to display Due Date and concatencate label with the actual value. However, I'm unable to format date to mm/dd/yyyy. Is there a format function that can be used in Expression box concatenated with another string?  For eg: Due Date: 6/30/11   Thanks

An expression box (InfoPath 2007) or calculated value (InfoPath 2010) is not a type of field - it is a control. You'll find it in your controls in your form when designing, either in the ribbon for IP 2010, or the task pane for IP 2007.

Thank you, Hilary!  You are very kind.  You have given me a couple of ideas of things to try (for example, I do not see 'expression box' as an example of a field I can add, but it sounds exactly like what I need)  When I get a chance I'll try these things out and let know if it works. 

 Hi Anson, I have a followup question that i was wondering if you can help me with. Once the values have been merged, it looks like its promoted to SP library as one string. If i wanted a workflow parse, the string how would I be able to do that. For example, if Choice1 and Choice2 are selection, it appears in the SP library column as ...
