This paper deals with the following problem: Can an arbitrary continuous function on [0, 1], which vanishes at the origin, be represented in some sense as a series of constant multiples of indefinite integrals of a complete orthonormal set of functions on [0,1]? Four contexts in which this problem arises naturally will be given in the introduction and the remainder of the paper will be devoted to giving a partial answer to the specific problem formulated in one of these contexts.
