 yes, that helps.  thank you! 

Hi ya'll.  I'm trying to "cookbook" the OOTB solution from the  webinar kit called 02-28 - InfoPath Dashboards - Repeating Data so that I can write repeating data to a SharePoint list.  The CAML template looks like this:<?xml version="1.0"?> <Batch OnError="Return" ...

OK, I get it now. I just need xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(xdXDocument:GetDOM("Approvers")/dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/d:SharePointListItem_RW/d:Approver/pc:Person/pc:AccountId, 'concat(., "; ")'), "..")  My mistake was thinking Person was a repeating type.  Thank you Patrick!!

[quote user="Patrick Halstead"]Hi Susan, I'm attaching a sample from a webinar I did last year.  Expand the data source and take a look at the default value on the /my:myFields/my:AccountIdAggregation/my:People node. It has a double eval that it gets from a People Picker. Good luck!  [/quote]  thanks Patrick - ...

I can use this formula xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(xdXDocument:GetDOM("Approvers")/dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/d:SharePointListItem_RW, 'concat(d:Approver, "; ")'), "..") to retrieve all the Approver data . . . But I can't figure out how to change the formula to get only AccountId.   When I use ...

Thank you for that reply, DonStephen, but it’s not what I’m looking for.  In the example, there’s a validation rule for Zip Code.  If I click the Submit Form button and Zip Code didn’t validate, the form would not save to SharePoint.  How do I prevent the next rule, called “update submitStr” from firing? 

I'd like to use validation rules (browser-enabled forms, no code behind), but I think I'm missing an important concept.  When my user clicks SUBMIT, I want to update a field called submitStr.  If the firing of a validation rule halts the submit action (the actual saving of the form), how can I test for that?  I only ...

Is there a downside to publishing multiple InfoPath forms (browser-enabled), as Site Content Types, to a single form library? I want to use a set of common columns between all of the forms, in addition to columns/fields specific to each form.  I also want (SP Designer) workflow to check for the Content Type and take action ...

My InfoPath 2010 web-enabled form includes a data connection to a SharePoint list, which provides a group of choices.  As user makes one or more selections, one at a time, a row in a repeating table is populated.    On subsequent loads of the form, I want to re-query that SP list to update the a single column in ...

Thank you so much Patrick!  The translate function is what I need. Now if I could just figure out where to put it.  The list attachment URLs are in a repeating table.  I don't see where I can apply a function to incoming data.  Seems I need a second control that is grabs each URL and translates it.  I haven't ...
