Default Query from a Repeating Table (via WS and C#)


I'm creating my first relatively complex Infopath application.

This system lets users create new work requests. These requests are then processed by other users who later update the requests when they are completed. This is all done in one form with 3 different views (status of all open requests, new request form, detail of a specific request).

The 'view' that shows the status of all open requests uses a repeating table to display a few details of each request. I then insert an extra column and insert a button (switches to the 'detail view') that would allow a user to see all of the details of that specific request.

I had this working until I switched to web services and C#. It was setup with Infopath talking directly to the database and JScript.

C# WS Query Method

VB.Net DB List Method (this is the method that actually pulls all the details of a request and populates the 'repeating table')



Each request has a unique number (reqID) associated with it. I'm trying to pull this parameter from the repeating table, query the rest of the details and switch to the 'detailed' view.

Example of what the repeating table looks like with different data:




C# Infopath Detail - OnClick Code (My problem is here.)

Infopath gives the following error when I try to use the 'detail' button. I think it's something around the 'selectSingleNode' statement, because of the nullRef error I get.

I get a System.NullReferenceException
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
   at reqForm_2_0.reqForm_2_0.mainOpen_OnClick(DocAction Event e)
   at Microsoft.Office.Interop.InfoPath.SemiTrust._Butto nEventSink_SinkHelper.OnClick(DocActionEvent pEvent)


Any ideas?
Thanks,
-C

I am very new to Infopath and apologize if my question seems too simple for advanced users. I have created a repeating table. I need to be able to access the individual entries. For example, I enter 4 names as participating in an event. I need to be able to create reports by person showing in which events they participated. I thought about just having individual entries but I must relate all back to the same event so that didn't work. Can anyone help me with this? thank you.
