MS Office Forum / General MS InfoPath Questions / June 2005Autopopulating Rich Text Box
Can I autopopulate a ruch text box from a Sharepoint List. My list isn't allowing this at the moment. Thanks in advance I would suggest a repeating section or repeating table - they seem to reflect the repeating nature of the SharePoint list better than the rich text box. > Can I autopopulate a ruch text box from a Sharepoint List.

It just doesn't find them. I would like to be able to use dot points and other rich text features and then autopopulate a rich text box in my form with the same formatting. >I would suggest a repeating section or repeating table - they seem to >reflect the repeating nature of the SharePoint list better than the rich [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >> >> Thanks in advance Try the bulleted lists? I'm afraid the rich text box is not designed for what you're trying to do. Doing this with a rich text box seems possible, but would require coding. Bind the rich text box to some node, i.e. field1; then, with code, set field1 to append all nodes from the resultsetl, and format the result as you wish. Good luck, Alex > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] >>> >>> Thanks in advance |
