Manage data Connections

Randal Flinn 311

Hello,

I have a table in InfoPath where I use a Secondary Data Source. When I select "Manage Data Connections" I am unable to modify the connection or add columns/fields. How do I add fields to the Secondary Data Connection?

Thanks

Hello @Emily Du-MSFT

In my case, I had to create another Data Connection and delete the initial one. The only option I received (on the first one) after selecting "Modify" was "Finish.

It’s so weird. You could remove the data connection, then recreate the data connection.
