Hi Matt - thanks for your reply. But how do i set the rule that sets the node that the drop-down is bound on to the value of ''Please Select''?

Hi Soham, For Case 1, you will put conditional formatting on the Car Details section that uses THE EXPRESSION = "not(/myfields/Trip/Legs/Leg[ car = 'yes' ])" as the condition, HIDE as the action.  This expression checks for the existance of a node, and then negates it.  Therefore, if there are zero car checks, then ...

If it shows up as one of the choices in the drop-down, then you will add either code or a rule that sets the node that the drop-down is bound on to the value of ''Please Select''.

But yes both of you are right that the basis of this thread is about random ID number, I'll just post ...

Hi AndersR, I've downloaded the Webservice Studio 2.0 as you instructed and pointed it out to my lists.asmx site. But I'm still vague on how to use the GetListItems method to obtain the unique ID created by the sharepoint when we submit a form to the sharepoint. Can you give me pointers here AndersR?    Thank you so ...

Thanks Matt but how do you make the ''Please Select'' option in the xml as your default?

Thanks Matt and Nukkumatti. I was exactly after the xpath [and also current() and position()] functions to get the results but didn’t the know the way to do it. I will try and explain the situation in a better way possible: With my Repeating Table I have 4 columns (departure city, arrival city, hotel and car). With hotel and car I have a ...
