InfoPath Dev

In a test list form, I was able to select "Section" from the controls and it was added to my form and bound to the SharePointListItem_RW node. What are you trying and what is happening when you try?

So there are a few behaviors in InfoPath that I don't find intuitive - but that we can sometimes leverage to our advantage. This is one - if you don't specify the row with an index or XPath filter, you get the first value. The second is that if you set a field inside a repeating node from outside (i.e., you have a button at the top of your ...

Sure, you could. I wouldn't - but I'm guessing you were posting this as I was posting my reply.

So - the most recent row is the first one. In InfoPath, if we select a field from a repeating data source, it is by default going to return the first value - that's why I had you sort desc. :-) You can also just index the XPath if need be - select the field using the field picker, in the formula editor tick the box to show the XPath and put ...

No. You will not be able to update one list from another list form using out of the box InfoPath and SharePoint List functionality. I may have misunderstood your question. I thought you were asking if you could populate the form with the most recent saved values.

In the direct link, do you include any URL params, like maybe "openin" or "noredirect"? I'm wondering if those might help here. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/office/developer/sharepoint-2010/ms772417(v%3Doffice.14)

These are different fields? You are using list forms? Just add a data connection to the same list, and set it to not query when the form opens. Sort the data by Modified desc. Then when the user enters a site, set the site query field to the requested site and execute the query. Use rules to set your current fields from the 2DS fields.

Missed that, sorry - but did you try "and"? Because what you are effectively saying with "or" is that if the data doesn't match this or that, it is invalid. And it can't match both. You could also consolidate the pattern. See the attached sample - save locally, right click and select design then you can preview. :)

You were super close - just missing the "Plant" from the MDList in your XPath filter. Try this: xdXDocument:GetDOM("MDList")/dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/d:SharePointListItem_RW/d:Email[../d:Plant = current()/../my:Ship]

So - your second expression has 5 digits at the end, and your sample value has four (3454). If I add another digit to your sample value, using your second pattern, validation works as anticipated.... I'm wondering if you are using "and" or "or" in the validation conditions? The condition is that the field does not match the ...
