lookup pasting 1st row of repeatring not the other

[ITOjim]

all,

we recently upgraded to 7 and ran into a strange problem and I hoping the group could help.

We have an Invoice file that has two sets of repeating fields. One for Labor Codes and one for equipment.

The user enters the first field in the labor line and a pop up of the code # and Description field show up. When one is selected the labor code gets put into field A, the description goes in field B, and the unit cost goes into Field C.

This works for the 1st row of the repeating field but not the remainder. When you enter the second or subsiquent rows you see the Code # and Description. Once selected the Code # gets pasted into Field A but nothing gets entered into B or C.

I have the exact same thing for Equipment and all of those repeating fields work fine.

Any ideas?

Jim

You shouldn't be using repeating fields. You should be using a related table and a portal.

could you give me an example of how to do it?
