How can I add a field to secondary data source?

R

Robin

I understand that Infopath secondary data sources such as a sharepoint list,
once added, will not show any new fields if the list needs additional new
fields.

What is the proposed solution for this? Does the form need to be recreated
AND use a newly created list which has the new fields?

I have tried creating a new list name with the exact same named fields plus
the new ones I want, but the Infopath form still only makes available the
original fields.

Hi

I an't test it now, but

1. Go to Menu Tools -> Data Connections
2. Select the Data Connection you alredy created (Secondary
DataSource)
3. Follow the wizard until the end
4. The Seondary Datasource is updated

let us know if this worked, as I don'thave InfoPath and SharePoint
available at the moment.
