Hi guys, I'm running into an issue trying to programmatically populate a drop down list with data from an array. The reason I need to do this programmatically is because the original datasource brings back approximately 7000 rows of data - needless to say this slows down my infopath form greatly. My solution is to have the user type the ...

Hi Jimmy, I've tried to do what you've mentioned here as well as how you've guilded countless others through the same issue. I've probably read at least 10 different instances where you've helped others but I still can't get this to work for me. Here is the scenario: Have two Filler Forms that are saved to a ...

Well, the thing is - it wouldn't have to be boolean. You can just add the field to your repeating table, and it adds a text box or whatever, and you can right click that control and change the control to the text box. Like I said - the issue is that the user will be able to select multiple, so you'll need to add some rules that will ...

 Hey Hilary, Err I dont have a boolean field in my sharepoint list that is free. but i guess i could add a field in the SQL and add that to the BCS and stream it in from there, will that only allow one tick ?

Hi there,  I have a repeating table that is linked to a Secondary Data Source (sharepoint list via BCS). I need a checkbox so that i can select a certain row.  I have set up a boolean field (locally) and i have got the checkboxes, but when i click one they all tick.  I need a solution where only one ticks and then find that ...

got it.  Thanks

Hi,   I don't see a response to this question.  I was considering the same type of design. Did you get it working?    - rp

Here's what I did - I added another field to your Units data source called "Saved" - and moved the save logic to it. Clicking the button then sets Saved to a value of 1 - which triggers the logic. I think I left the rule setting the Unit Count on there - you won't need that any more. So, this means you'll need a helper field ...
