Nintex Community Menu Bar

I have been working through some archived forms lists in our SharePoint tenant. The Nintex forms are all in the Classic format. I have successfully upgraded most of them to the new responsive style, but I have encountered problems with one form that uses a repeating section.

As we know, the various controls within the repeater cannot be connected to columns, since the repeating section can only output into a single multi-line column as XML. The columns and their values are referenced in the XML schema as elements. In my case, the repeating sections contains text, date, number, Boolean, and the old calculated value fields. It took me a long time to develop the Classic form, but now I need to convert it before we lose access to the old designer.

The problems I am facing are that the upgrade process results in a form that is quite seriously broken. About half of the variables are broken

As for the rules, nearly all are broken.

The converted repeater now looks like this. However, those variable values are derived by the formulas, and the broken ones all relate to these repeater controls. 

So, the question is how can I simply display the content of the repeating section on each form in a clear and readable format? The converted form as above, is useless. I only need the form to display each list item. It is an archive, so no editing needs to be done, just straightforward view only.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

just wondering are you looking for “Auto Populate” the New Responsive Form with a Repeating Section content saved in SP List ( which is a an XML content) ?

Thanks,Majid
