Sorry I don’t know how to do that. In my enviroment i don’t care about duplicates. At least Exchange2007 is smart enouth to not send email twice.

Hi Alec,
I have used this formula to obtain a list of email from a repeating table:
eval(eval(GrpTechDept; ‘concat(my:TechEmail, “;”)’); “..”)
I got a resulting list like this:
“email1@blabla.com;email2@blabla.com;email1@blabla.com”
Now I would like to remove the duplicate email from this list. Is there a trick to improve the formula above to prevent concatenating duplicate value (codeless of course).
Thank you in advance. Kind regards,
Thanh-Nu

It’s hard to say what is wrong in your case. I could look into the code of the stripped version of your form if you OK to share it somewhere.

No. A12participants and A12Participant1 are not repeating groups. Does it matter how I setup the other contact selectors?

Is any of your upper group levels for the Person group are repeating ones?

The cap “D” was my mistake when replying to you. It is actually lowerces in the form. I tried taking the “../” out and I also tried “./”. I also tried choosing it from the field picker. No dice. Anything else I should do?

You have to remove leading ../
Also in AccountId “d” is lowcase. It’s important(both field and formula).

Yep I have the latest xpath formula:
xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(my:Person, ‘concat(my:AccountId, “|”)’), “..”)

I have more than one contact selectors so I also tried:

xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(../my:A12participants/my:A12participant1/my:Person, ‘concat(my:AccountId, “|”)’), “..”)

Still no luck. Here is part of my data source structure:

-A12participants
-A12Participant1
-Person
DisplayName
AccountID
AccountType

Any ideas?

Make sure you have latest version of XPath formula. I recently updated formulas to be compatible with Form Sevices.

Hi Alec, great post! I’ve read through all the conversations and I am also getting the:

msxml5.dll
Reference to undeclared namespace prefix: ‘my’.

Error occurred during a call to property or method ‘Eval’.

error. I am using a button. I have the count-person condition and the eval rule on this button. Any ideas?
