Infopath custom form to update Sharepoint list

[Gagan]

Hi There,

I have created a custom form in infopath, containing various data. they all
have fields assigned to them. I've been trying to figure out how to update a
custom sharepoint list when the user fills out the form, with only certain
fields updating the list. I have been browsing the internet for about two
weeks now, and every tutorial i seem to come across only explains how to do
it via inserting a repeating table, but this does not work for me, as i have
fields all over the place, i feel like my problem lays in the CAML XML
fragment and i may need to figure out how to code a custom one. can anyone
point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance

If you do not want to write code to insert or update the custom SharePoint
list, then the solutions you've found using a repeating table and CAML are
your only option. If you can write code, you'll have more flexibility as to
which fields from the InfoPath form you submit to SharePoint. Have a look at
this post which lists options for submitting InfoPath data to a SharePoint
list:

Did you try stepping through your code to see where the
NullReferenceException takes place? Chances are, you've got a typo somewhere
in one of the field names or data source name.
