Editing input of individual fields in a repeating table- drop down

E

em

Hi,

I am using an Infopath form with data connections to a sharepoint list and
web service, in order to allow users to submit new items into the list using
the form.

I used this tutorial to implement this
http://blogs.msdn.com/infopath/archive/2007/03/26/submitting-to-a-sharepoint-list.aspx

The form functions fine, and I added the repeating table from my secondary
data source (the XML file), just as the tutorial says to do so. However,
within my list on the sharepoint site, some of the fields are drop down
choices, date formats, multiple lines, etc. When previewing the form, it does
not recognise these formats and simply produces an empty text box for each
field, where the user is supposed to type the data.

How do I implement drop down boxes, multiple lines, and forced format entry
(date, number, etc) on the form? ...Since I cannot access each individual
field within the repeating table, I could not work out how to do this.

Here is the design screen with the data source panel at the side showing
where the repeating table is linked to:
