InfoPath Drop-down List Box functionality

D

Don Baechtel

I have a drop-down list box in an InfoPath form where I want the User to type
in names or select one from a list populated from the InfoPath Data Source of
names that were previously entered. I can't seem to set up the box properties
correctly. There are no good InfoPath examples or help on the use of
drop-down list boxes. If I change the List box Entries to "Look up values in
the form's data source" and set the Entires to a repeating field I get "You
selected the field where the control saves data. Instead, select the field
where the controls looks up data." How do I make the control lookup data and
save data in the same place? How do you use drop down list controls that can
be editted by the User in InfoPath?

Hi,

I think you can found your answer on:

www.infopathdev.com

That the best website for learn infopath

But if you understand that : you have to duplicate your dropdown and
change him by a textbox and after if a user enter value in the textbox
infopath add your value to the dropdown.
