I know this has to be simple, but I'm having trouble populating a form table using lookup rules. I'm not certain if this is the problem, but the "as new rows" checkbox is always inactive on the fill lines and I can't find a way to change it.

Although your input parameters are outside of the target table, if they are in any table/collection the option still wouldn't be available.
Are you saying they are normal fields?

The "as new rows" option is not available when the condition(s) of the lookup are part of a table/collection. I don't know the exact reason, but I imagine it is because it could easily create a lot of overhead that would impact load times.
Thanks so much! Maybe I'll create a stored procedure to see if that works.
Turns out I got the same result with a stored procedure. I can see on Laserfiche Answers where some people have accomplished what I'm trying to do (populate a multi-row table) however I can't see what they are doing different to get the "as new rows" checkboxes to be active. My input parameters are outside the table. Thanks!

Jason, I see what you're saying and the parameters are not present in the table where I would like to see the results load. The 2 parameters are normal single line fields that are used as parameters in the stored procedure; they are not returned in the result set and are only used in the Where clause.
I believe I just got it. My parameters weren't normal fields, I had forgotten they are table fields. After I created new parameter fields as normal fields, I got my checkboxes. Thank you so much for your help!!
