VSTO 2005 Se and Office InfoPath 2007 behaving differently ..?

I have tried to create an InfoPath 2007 template part using Visual Studio
2005 and VSTO 2005 SE to display data from the following XML ...(based on
BOOKDATA.xml)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<BOOKS>
<BOOK isbn="88-99-00-1028-1230" publicationDate="01/01/2007">
<TITLE>InfoPath 2007 end-to-end!</TITLE>
<SUMMARY>Developers guide to everything InfoPath. Includes full .Net 2.0
source code in C# and VB.</SUMMARY>
</BOOK>
<BOOK isbn="77-99-00-1028-1230" publicationDate="01/02/2007">
<TITLE>Office System 2007 end-to-end!</TITLE>
<SUMMARY>Complete description of all server and client components of
Microsoft's new Office suite.</SUMMARY>
</BOOK>
</BOOKS>

When trying to add the part into another InfoPath template form, I get an
error:
"InfoPathFormTemplatePart cannot be bound to the selected field or
group."

I created EXACTLY the same template part in Office InfoPath 2007 and this
works ...??? Has anyone encountered this behaviour?

My template part uses a datasource from the xml above, with a repeating
section which has a layout table, and a textbox (for title) and richtextbox
(for summary).

I would like to keep my whole solution in VS 2005 if possible. Any help
would be useful.
