This is my first Infopath project. It's pretty simple, but I am
totally stumped on one thing I want to do. I've got everything else
working except this part.
I am entering class attendance. I input the class code, the date and
the teacher(s), no problem. The student information is a repeating
section. I have a drop-down, populated by a secondary source, that
gives the student ID numbers.
When the user selects an ID number, how do I make it look up the name
of the student and display it?
Thanks in advance.
Hi Clothahump,
You need to set the rule on ID number field with filter option is like:
'ID is equal to Stundent ID' to get the name of the student.

Ok, I did that. It returns the first name in the file, no matter
which ID number I select in the drop down box. It's apparently not
querying the database with the selected value.
