radio rate"" Unbound Controls  
Fist off I am very new to infopath.  I have a VB6 background and know SQL. I have inherited an infopath project that has some forms that are used to submit evaluations on employees.  The forms are browser enabled and submit via email. The HR department wants these to be able query the data.  My thougth was to _link_ as best I could the existing forms to a SQL table.   I am finding that this is not possible so I have built new forms that are _link_ed to SQL and cut and paste the desgin elements from the old forms. All is ok so far.  Here are my questions: When the controls like radio buttons and text boxes are cut and paste to the new form they are unbound.  Not a problem because I can just mannually bind them.  However some of the contols on the form do not need to be bound to the data_base_.  They are for view only.   As an example there are 7 radio buttons with a text under them that says: Please rate the employee leadership skills .  If the rater selectes the first radio button a 1 should be recorded in the data_base_ under leadership score if the last button were selected a 7 should be recorded in the dat_base_. There are also text boxes used to display totals that from there evaluated areas but not recorded in the data_base_ due to the fact that they are calculated values from other fields on the forms. Can someone point me in the right direction on this.
