    Save history using rules

    Hi,I need to develop an InfoPath 2007 form that is used with K2 Blackpeal Workflow. The form goes through a few approvals and each time the user approves I should write some of the values entered in textboxes to a read only textbox for history purposes. But I have about 30 of these fields and each of them has their own history textbox.On the form Submit added a rule that looked like this for all the fields that needs a history:Set a field's value:impactCostHistory = concat(impactCost, " ", "impactCostHistory")But when the form submits the data is not written to the history textboxes. I have tested the rules because I added the same rules on a button and it worked.Might the problem be that there are 30+ actions in one rule and it does not have enough time to execute all the actions before the form submits? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    make sure you are first firing the rules and then you are submitting, it seems that the form is submitted first and then the rules get fired.

    other option will be to try splitting the actions on to many rules.

    Agree - make sure that you are doing your custom rules on submit before the K2 web service is called.
