Hi, I was wondering what the recommended solution to this particular situation might be. I have a code list of values intended for a select1 control defined like this: <CodeList> <Item Code="...">Value</Item> ... </CodeList> However, once the value is selected from the select1, I need to include it in the following XML instance document: <Element> <ItemName/> <ItemCode/> ... <OtherElement/> </Element> Now obviously, this situation sorta proves the Rule of the 7 P's (Proper Previous Planning Prevents Piss-Poor Performance), but I was hoping there was a way to do it with XForms features. I can think of the following, non-XForms ways of solving the problem: 1) Change the external data in the itemset Unfortunately, this isn't really a runner for where the copied elements would go, there are other elements as children of the parent node. 2) Change the input instance and transform after form submission This is probably the easiest, but involves an additional step at the end. I'm sure it won't be the only one that I end up with, but it isn't ideal for my situation. At the moment, I'm leaning towards option 2, but would love to have an option 3.
