InfoPath Dev

i have attached the form and expect sooner help

Under the Default data tab in the ribbon you can add additional default rows and set values. :)

Thank you so much Hilary for all you help I definitely see the usefulness of using the repeating section. I am not sure how to populate the table with data though. Did you use a XML file to do this?

Hi, after reading your other post, I think what you want to try is the following: open your list form template in InfoPath Designer and add a receive data connection to your list. Then click the Form Load option on the Data ribbon, and add a rule to Form Load to query the data connection you just created, but make sure to set the Title query field ...

Oh! so bound to the same repeating field, but each one only has specific options! That is an interesting concept. Let me think about it a little & I'll get back to you. I think I have an idea that may work. In your real form, will the values be hard coded, or do they come from a secondary data connection?

I think you need a form load rule to handle this - so - if the title data field is not blank, set the title query field to that value and run the query? I'm kinda being vague because I'm not really sure if this will work. If I have time today I'll give it a try and see if I can get you some more specific instructions.

I think the only way around this would be to use a different data structure. If you used a repeating structure, you could use the eval function to do the math. See attached sample, download it locally, right click and select design to open in design mode, then preview. I'm using default data & formatting rules to get the items onto the ...

Oh, forgot to include that! See attached. My button and my "button" are kinda ugly, but you can adjust the formatting in your form - by switching to a calc'd value for your disabled button, you don't get highlighting on hover, etc - all the stuff that makes us think a button is live.

Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for. Now if only my buttons actually looked disabled when they were supposed to. :) I did see this happen on SP 2010, so I don't think it's 100% tied to SP 2013.

 Dear Hilary, thank you very much for your reply.  Yes, it's a Sharepoint list form (customized with InfoPath).  I know how to filter dropdown menu choices based on antoher list, but I think you are saying a different thing here. I can create a different display form for my list, but how can I execute ...
