If you only have 2 events, you can create 2 repeating tables and hide the other repeating table depending on what event was selected.  Otherwise, there is no out of box way to create dynamic columns in a repeating table. Also there is no out of the box method to insert x rows to a repeating table using rules in InfoPath.  Your ...

Have you tried the LIKE operator using % as your wild card? In order to have CONTAINS work, you will need to have full-text search enabled on your table.

If your goal is just to learn about InfoPath, SharePoint and their capabilities there are alot of great articles online that will explain the features and scenarios that you can accomplish using these applications.  There are alot of great books out there that talk about designing InfoPath forms and best ...

I would recommend using the contact selector control which will work in both environments.  If memory serves me, I believe the new 2010 people picker will not work correctly in InfoPath 2007.

I believe you must select what kind of a main dataconnection you have at the beginning of creating a template. If you start a template based on an XML file (or word document? never done that before) then the main data source/connection will be email/file based for submit rather than database. I don't think you can 'convert' it to a ...
