I am using InfoPath to look up Employee information from a SQL Server
DB in a Search View/Tab of a form.  The issue is now that only one of
the employees will be the correct person for the form.  I would like
the users to be able to search from a set of all employees then select
the employee they would like the form use information about.  So for
now i'm thinking that a button with text along the line "Select This
Employee" within the repeating section would copy the employee data to
a static non-repeating set of fields.  Employee information is only a
sub-section of data in the form, but it does need to be looked up
dynamically.

Any help would be appreciated?

Hello

If you want the data from the DB to be shown on clicking the button, then
use a rule on a button to querry the DB on Click
