How to use Qdabra's InfoPath to SharePoint List Tool for qRules v6.1 or higher

donstephen — Mon, 14 Sep 2015 12:36:35 GMT

Wondering why you can't publish your InfoPath form to a SharePoint custom list? This is a limitation of both InfoPath and SharePoint - you can only publish forms to a form library/document library but not to a custom list. Submitting data to a custom list requires the use of content types – which is a long process. We find that many users experience this problem, so Qdabra provides a quick and easy solution.

Qdabra’s InfoPath to SharePoint List Tool (also called the “Mapping Tool”) allows you to quickly import any InfoPath form XML file to a SharePoint list, creating a list item with data from specified fields in the form for qRules v4.2 and later versions – bulk import multiple XMLs in one step.

Uninstalling Qdabra's QueryBuilder InfoPath form tool

ErnestoM — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 20:14:42 GMT

Qdabra's Query Builder InfoPath form tool needs to run with full trust so that it can execute shell commands. To install this full trust tool on your local computer, we use InfoPath’s built-in support for URN based solutions. When the form is installed, InfoPath adds entries to your Windows registry. Unfortunately, due to a bug in InfoPath installer, sometimes uninstalling doesn’t work and the registry entries are not cleaned up correctly. In such cases, the result is that you can’t re-install the tool, since your machine will think that "The form is already installed on your computer". You might also find that you are unable to remove the form from the InfoPath cache when you run the command Infopath /cache clearall.

If you encounter this issue, try to remove the form using the Windows CleanUp Utility. In addition, you might need to manually clean up the registry. Do this at your own risk and backup your registry before proceeding. If the problem is happening with the QueryBuilder form, for example, search for "QueryBuilder" in the registry and you will find a key like this:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\InfoPath\SolutionsCatalog\urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:infopath:Qdabra-Query-Builder:-myXSD-2008-02-19T23-06-28.

Remove this key manually and you will then be able to reinstall the form.

Note that this could happen with any installed form, not just the QueryBuilder form.

Qdabra Modify PI Tool for InfoPath

Mel Clemente — Wed, 27 May 2009 10:38:25 GMT

When you have moved or renamed an InfoPath form template (XSN), the associated XML files become orphaned from their associated template. The Qdabra Modify PI Tool for InfoPath (QdModifyPI) modifies the InfoPath processing instruction (“HREF”) attribute of an XML file to point to the new template’s location.

After installing this tool, you can right-click on any InfoPath XML file in Windows Explorer and the tool will show you the current HREF, allowing you to enter a new one. In addition, you can modify the PI for all XML files in a folder for quick bulk-updates.
