InfoPath Dev

Dear Gurus
I have a infopath 2003 form with managed code in C#.Net, VS 2003, in which I have included a group of radio button namely personel and offcial.I want to show a textbox when personal is selected and hide the textbox if the official radio button is selected. My problem is how can I access these radio button programmetically in my C#.NET code, to make changes upon their selection mode.
I am extremely helpless.

Any help is welcome

Hi Nasir,
Without using code also we can do this by applying conditional formatting on the section keeping text box in the section.

Hope this helps you!

Hi Paki,

the easiest really is using conditional formatting. Double click the control you want to hide/show and select contditional formating.
The select form the first dorpdownlist your radioButtonControl, in the second is not equal to and in the third "1" or "2" or Yes/No depending how you have set up your radion button.

If you want to use code you can get a reference to your radion button control like this:
IXMLDOMNode myRadioButton = thisXDocument.Dom.SelectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:RadioButtonControlName");

and then use

if(myRadioButton.text == "depending on how you have set the values to your radio button)

Wow... it is pretty simple and really worked... I have no words to thanks both of you... you are life savers...!

Is there any way to hide or show a control programmatically specially in C#.NET

Hi Nasir,
Here is the block of the code that you need in C#
public bool showText()
{
int selected = Convert.ToInt16(thisXDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:Field1").text);
if(selected == 0)
{
return true;
}
return false;
}

xdExtension:showText()

Hope this helps you!
