I never thought of adding a data connection to the same data source more than once.  Its so simple!  Thats Brilliant!!!  Thank you!

Hello! You are correct that you do not have to filter the dropdown.  And you are correct that the parramiters for the method are groupAlias AND maxCount.  I figured out that if I created a rule that populates these two fields (veriables) when the form loads and set the Data Source for the dropdown to ...

I never removed the secondary data source. And yes I have verified that there are entries with a groupAlias= SalesGroup.  Step five was just the addition of a rule to the drop down control...     Condition: None - Rule runs when field changes     Rule Type: Action     Run ...

Hilary, thank you.  Yes the drop down is blank.  I have followed the instructions in the user’s guide for the GetMembersOfGroup method and successfully created test form that pulls the information into the form when queried with a button.  So I know the method is working.    In the same form I am now trying to ...

Ernesto using the Users Guide i was able to reproduce the steps to use both the GetGroupsForUser and GetMembersOfGroup methods in a blank template.  but im still not sure how to use this information in a drop down.   What I did was 1. Include the GetMembersOfGroup as a data source.  2. Created a drop down field called get ...

Another way to fix this is to create a rule that looks at the person who opened the form and switches the view acordingly.  I've set up rules in several forms that quiry AD for the users name on open, then switch the view to the correct one.

First of all, very nice post, good directions. I too went through some tough times trying to figure this process out. Eventually, after reading lots of posts and blogs (none as well documented as yours) I came up with the same process. But I still have a few unanswered questions and was wondering if you had run into ...

Ernesto, Thank you for your responce and pointing me in the right direction.  Thats exactly the info I was looking for.  Steven 

Ernesto, Sorry it's taken so long to get back to your post.  As soon as you fix one problem two more pop up and I've been putting fires out ever sence.  I finaly got time to get back to this project.  Can you tell me how Iwould pass the group name to the call? Thanks for your time, Steven'

Is it posible to use GetMembersOfGroup to populate a dropdown and if so how? Thanks, Steve
