Infopath 2007 Multi-select list box selected value at runtime

[Jane]

Hi,

Here's my situation. I'm trying to create a multi-select list box that is
populated with values at runtime in C#. When the form loads, some of the
values in the multi-select list box should be selected already (or checked).
My secondary data source is a web service that returns an xmldocument. The
list box is bound to the xmldocument.

I have searched through the internet and cannot find any information on how
to programmatically set each item in the multi-select list box as selected
based on certain condition. Please advice or direct me to a website that can
resolve this situation.

Thank you.
Jane

This is part of an answer I gave to another similar post: What you would have
to do is loop through the source of the multiple selection list box, create a
field containing the value for each item from your source, and append it
under the group node that represents the list.

This seems to be a popular request, so I've put it on my - by now long list
- of articles to write for my website.

Hi S.Y.M.,

Thanks for the quick response. I think I did that. I created another XML
file that captures the value but when I try to loop through it, it created
double entries.

Please include a link where I can find your solution. Thank you so much for
your help!

Hi Jane,

No worries; here's the link:

I got the double entries too! That's when you use the display name instead
of the value when adding the items to the multi-select list box.

Hope that helps.
