Infopath question

I have two fields that are bound to different controls. In the first field,
there is a simple list to choose from and there's no problem there. But in
the second field, I want the data source to be different depending on what
was selected in the first field, so I set up a rule that says when a certain
value is selected in the first field, use a particular XML file as the data
source for this field, but the rule doesn't fire when I preview the form and
it just grabs the data from the main data source specified in the second
field.
