SQL and repeating table

[UKDeluded]

Hi all!
Okay, I developed a quotes library to hold newspaper quotes etc relevant to
our company. They love it. Straight InfoPath XML - nothing too fancy.
To make it better though I decided to create a database behind it, re-create
the form and have it submit to the database so I can use different methods of
retrieving the information and link it through to othr systems.
The problems:
1) I have to have a repeating table for the quotes - it might be a ten page
article with quotes on pages 2 and 5 so on one row page number would be '2'
and the quote, insert new row, page 5 and so on. With the database though as
soon as you try to submit with a second row it fails. The dataset in SQL for
that part simply has unique ID, page, quote.
2) I would like the submit button to submit to the database and then upload
the form to the Sharepoint library so the visual workings remain the same. I
seem to be able to get it to do one or the other, not both.

Any clues dear friends???

Nice idea.

To get the multiple insertions recorded in the database (on Access) the
repeating table has to be on the many side of a one-to-many relationship
between the master table and the repeating table one. Furthermore both
tables have to have an ID field to allow submission of information.

Re submitting have a look at Ned Friends article in Assistance on multiple
submissions it explains many different ways to do it.

Cheers

One to many simply didn't occur to me! I'll give it a bash and see what comes
out the other end.

Thanks.
