I have bound the Rating dropdown to "RatingNumber" and then Iam also
populating the dropdown using the option - values from web service.
Could this be a problem ?
Thanks

box itself.
You could try removing it from the view, and reinserting it...
I'm not sure why you are seeing two copies of the same value... and
especially since you say it is replacing another value. That really doesn't
make sense.

Greg,
I changed my datasource like the folowing ie. for each Question there is a
set of rating mapped. So now when I select a value in Rating dropdown the
values in the other dropdown doesnot change. But there is another issue,
when I select a value for the dropdown that value appears twice in the list
and the first value disappears. eg- If values in the dropdown are
0,1,2,3,4,5 and when I select value "2" the value "0" disappears and in its
place "2" appears. So now the value "2" appears twice in the list.

message I see... so it looks to me that the problem is coming from the fact that you
do not have a rating PER question, which is what you are trying to do in the
view.
It would make more sense, for what you want, to have a data source like
this:
- Categories
CategoryID
CategoryName
-- Questions
QuestionID
Question
RatingNumber
Does that help?

Greg,
Thanks for the response.
My datasource is something like this
- Categories
CategoryID
CategoryName
-- Questions
QuestionID
Question
-- Ratings
RatingNumber
CategoryID
Questions and Ratings are related to a category.
I have a repeating table for the "Category" group , within that I have
another repeating table for displaying "Questions" and in this same table
against each question for a category Iam displaying the "Ratings" in a
dropdown which is bound to the RatingNumber field.
Repeating table format is something like this.
----------------------------------------------------------
Category1
----------------------------------------------------------
Question 1 Ratings(1,2,3,4,5) in dropdown
Question 2 Ratings(1,2,3,4,5) in dropdown
Question 3 Ratings(1,2,3,4,5) in dropdown
----------------------------------------------------------
Category2
----------------------------------------------------------
Question 4 Ratings(1,2,3,4,5) in dropdown
Question 5 Ratings(1,2,3,4,5) in dropdown
Question 6 Ratings(1,2,3,4,5) in dropdown
----------------------------------------------------------
Here for "Question 1" when I select a Rating say "2" from dropdown the
rating for "Question 2" & "Question 3" changes to "2".
I tried re-inserting a new dropdown as you said but it doesnot work.
Any other solution ?
Thanks

message Question: Does the field to which the drop-down list is bound exist within
the repeating node, or outside of it?
INSIDE:
Field1
Table
Row
Field2
Field3 (drop-down list bound here)
...
FieldN
OUTSIDE:
Field1 (drop-down list bound here)
Table
Row
Field2
...
FieldN
If it is inside, then it sounds as if your drop-down list box is bound to
only the first instance (row) in the repeating table. You might try
reinserting a new drop-down list box and see if the problem goes away.

hi,
I have a databound repeating table with a dropdown list in each row. When I
change the dropdown list value in one row the selected value of dropdown in
all the other rows chnages to this new value. Also this new value selected
appears twice in each dropdown. Any solution to this weird problem ?
Thanks
Renjith
