Hi,

 

Im loading a list from a data base to load the number of subforms items i need, which is working great , its a list of categories currently im throwing the category name into a text box within the subforms, id like to throw the name in the header of the subform so i can make it expandable and see what catergory it is even when collapse.

Ive tried doing manual load from database example : select name as 'Name', code as 'Value' from locations

 

Thanks,

  It's only possible to do this with JavaScript because the label doesn't allow variables.

  Here's some code I wrote a while back to automatically hide a section if all the checkboxes were checked.  The second function probably answers your question directly, but I included all of it.

  That would just be a targeting issue, so instead of grabbing the label, try something like this (untested pseudocode):

  textNode = $("#FieldInternalName").eq(index);
  text = textNode.contents().text();

  And delete the line that removes the parent element.
