Sharepoint list in InfoPath combo

A

Anders

Hi all,

I have a drop-down combo box in my InfoPath document that is filled with
data from a SharePoint list. The SharePoint list contains about 1100
elements. When I view the list in SharePoint it is devided in several pages
showing 100 elements per page. When I look at the data in my drop-down list
box in InfoPath only a part of the data is loaded. When I compare I notice
that only the first page from SharePoint is displayed in the drop-down.

Is there a way to handle this?

Thanks in advance
Anders

Hi me....again.

I found a not-the-most-attractive-but-working solution to this one.
In the default view in SharePoint under Item Limit it is possible to define
how many rows a batch should contain. I raised this value to fit all values.

We have had the same issue using Reporting Services to report from
Sharepoint. I know this is an InfoPath newsgroup, but does anyone know
if there's a better way to solve this problem than to create a view
with the limit set high so as to show all records on one page?

one answer would be to move your list in to a backend database like
SQL.
then just set up your data connection to read from the database.
sharepoint is great for document storage but it has its limits.
