Copying Data from a Secondary Datasource to a Child Table in a Main Datasource

This code sample documents a block of VB.Net code I had to write recently for retrieving a block of data from a secondary datasource, and then copying that data into a child table of a dataset in the main datasource. I've copied it over as is for my benefit as much as yours - I lost this code recently in a machine rebuild so want to have a copy somewhere! I believe the syntax shown here will be helpful to many of you. 

 

Public Sub GetEscalations_Clicked(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As ClickedEventArgs)

' Write your code here.

' Define constants

Const secondaryDataSourceName As String = "GetUserEscalations"

Const secondaryListXPath As String = "/dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/ns3:GetUserEscalationsResponse/ns3:GetUserEscalationsResult/NewDataSet/Table"

Const secondaryRelativeEscalationIDXPath As String = "EscalationID"

Const secondaryRelativeDataXPath As String = "CompanyName"

Const mainObservationEvidenceName As String = "KeyObservationEvidence"

'Define strings for mapping values to main datasource evidence table.

Const mainEvidenceKOID As String = "KOID"

Const mainEvidenceKOEvidenceID As String = "KOEvidenceID"

Const mainEvidenceKEID As String = "KEID"

Const mainEvidenceKEDetail As String = "KEDetail"

Const mainEvidenceKECreatedBy As String = "KECreatedBy"

Const mainEvidenceKECreatedDate As String = "KECreatedDate"

Const mainEvidenceKELastUpdatedBy As String = "KELastUpdatedBy"

Const mainEvidenceKELastUpdatedDate As String = "KELastUpdatedDate"

Const mainEvidenceKETypeID As String = "KETypeID"

Const mainEvidenceKETypeName As String = "KETypeName"

Const mainEvidenceKEDeleted As String = "KEDeleted"

'Get navigator to the root of the main datasource. There will only ever be one record in the

    How do I add a row to the top of a repeating section of my document?  I did it in 2003 via code like this:                thisXDocument.View.SelectNodes(nodeRowStart, Type.Missing, Type.Missing) ' select the firs row in the list.                'thisXDocument.UI.Alert("Message to user..)                thisXDocument.View.ExecuteAction("xCollection::insertBefore", "Activity_10") ' insert before the first row in the list. but cannot get my VSTA code to work:            Try                Dim mainDomNavigator As XPathNavigator = MainDataSource.CreateNavigator()                Dim ActivityNavigator As XPathNavigator = mainDomNavigator.SelectSingleNode("/d:WorkOrders/d:Activity[1]", NamespaceManager)                Using NewAct As XmlWriter = ActivityNavigator.InsertBefore()                    Dim prefix As String = ActivityNavigator.Prefix                    Dim namespaceUri As String = ActivityNavigator.NamespaceURI                    NewAct.WriteStartElement(prefix, "Activity_10", namespaceUri)                    NewAct.WriteEndElement()                End Using            Catch ex As Exception            End Try

    Is there a way to easily copy data from on repeating group to a new group? The underlying xml document looks like this <Root>   <Week time="01/01/08">      <Project name="Project 1" hours="1">        <Description>Blah Blah</Description>        <Status>Blah</Status>        <Details>           <DetailDescription>Blah Blah Blah Blah</DetailDescription> repeating at the Week, Project, and Detail level What I want do do is when in infopath I create another week, I want to prefill the new week with all of last weeks projects, copying over the name attribute, Description and Status, but leaving everything else blank. Say I have 5 projects from last week, when I create a new week, I need 5 new Project records created in this week's record. Is this at all possible? Is this documented somewhere? I am sure I am not the first person to come up with this request, but I am obviously the first person not smart enough to find the answer!
