Hello.

(this is a copy from my question in the microsoft community, but there I get no answer - but I need)

I want so Save my form out of a js function.

After initialize the OnSaveRequest via the "save as"-Menubutton, the
eventObj.IsSaveAs Property (read only) is true but after initialize OnSaveRequest with
XDocument.SaveAs("c:\test.xml") from code, the eventObj.IsSaveAs Property is
false and the error "The form has no filename." appears.

How can it be?

(my form is fully trusted)
(helpfiletext:"The IsSaveAs property returns true when the event was
triggered by a call to the SaveAs method")

Thanks in advance,
Paul Degenkolbe

Hi Paul,
You can't call the "SaveAs" method in the OnSaveRequest event handler, since that in turn calls the OnSaveRequest event handler causing an improper reentrancy. You should call "eventObj.PerformSaveOperation();" instead. Hope this helps.

sorry, I think I had to give you some more details.

I don't call the SaveAs Method out of the PerformSaveOperation Method, I call it from a ButtonClick Event.

if somebody wants to know, here my solution.

simply don't use the XDocument.SaveAs() and XDocument.Save methods but call the "normal" save routines from menu/file/.

(
objCommandBars = Application.ActiveWindow.CommandBars
objSave = objCommandBars.FindControl(1,3)
objSave.Control.Execute()
)

Hi Paul,
Thanks for posting your resolution!
