The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Can't figure Non-Repeating & Repeating Sections

Asked by cdrako in Infopath, Microsoft Access Database

Tags: , , ,

I'm new to Infopath and generally can pick up any software no problem but
this one is driving me nuts!!! it's probably something simple I'm just
missing.

I'm trying to create a basic data entry form based on Access - table
Projects with a 2nd table Actions - they are tied by field ControlNo.

all data in table Projects should be non repeating with the fields in
Actions as a repeatable table.

The idea is to have all project info then we can list all of the tasks or actions associated..

Every which way I format I go wrong. If I drag the dataFields to the data
entry section I get the whole form as repeatable and the Actions section as
optional but not repeatable on it own.

I've tried to add the sections seperately...I add each field and get a
message that I am tring to add a repeatable field to a non repeatable section
do you want to continue.  I continue and add a repeatable table for the
actions associated with this project. All looks good until I submit and get
an error about submitting blank lines even though I have added a 2nd row to
the actions section and all fields are filled in...

also tried other layouts and haven't been able to add a repeating table or
makes the entire form repeatable but not the section I want.

What am I doing wrong - I've been working on this for days now and every
time it doesn't work I have to recreate the entire form...
