Repeating Table -Drop Down list selection then Save that selection

[aspear]

I have a Drop Down list control within a Repeating Table..

I need the user to be able to select from that drop down list and then if
any ADDITIONAL rows are inserted for that field to be poplutated with the
option the User select within the Drop Down list in the first row...

I guess it needs to auto fill any inserted rows in that field with the
selection made from the drop down in the 1st row....

Is that possible?

Hi,
Put default value for drop down field like this.
'/my:myFields/my:group1/my:group2[1]/my:field1'
Here ‘group2’ is repeating field and ‘field1’ is the drop down field and
uncheck the ‘Update this value when the result of the formula is
recalculated’ check box.
Hope this helps.

Hi,

Use the default value as suggested by the last post. If you uncheck the
‘Update this value when the result of the formula is
Recalculated’ check box then the changes made in first row drop down after
the row inserted will not affect the other rows. If you check that check box,
when ever you change the value in first drop down automatically the other
rows will be updated same as first row. Checking/un checking the check box
depends on your requirement.

Using InfoPath 2003, how do you assign a default value to a drop down
field whose data source is a SharePoint list?

Hi,
You can assign default value to a field using the below steps.
1.Open the form in design mode.
2.Go to View -> Data source.
3.Right click on the field to which you want to put default value.
4.Go to properties. There you will see a box with default value. Enter the
value in that box.
