Hi,
I am stuck in a situation which goes as follows:-
I have to display ID for a task on a web form.Corresponding to this Id i
have to obtain action items(any No.).For each action Item the user should be
able to feed in any no. of notes.So basically I want two repeating groups
where there can be many main and any no. of sub repeating groups.
I am using a webservice to connect to SQL Database.
Your help is desperately wanted!

Hi Patrick,
Ya,this is an infopath query.
I am not sure how feasible this is.....
If you could suggest me some other way of doing this..your suggestions are
most welcome.

Hi Techy,
You can definitely do this in InfoPath by setting up secondary data sources
to query a Web service and then using them to auto-populate repeating groups
in your main data source. We have done this for many InfoPath forms. It will
require some ramp-up though and you'll have to spend some time learning
InfoPath. My recommendation would be to look at the SDK which is the best
programming resource out there. After that, there are several books.
Good luck!
