Determine if form is new or being edited

Reply Contact

Is it possible to determine if a form is being opened for the first time or if it is being opened to be edited? I have a data validation that I need to control based on whether the form is new or is it is being edited. Thanks for your help.

drhkeddy,

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm fairly new to InfoPath and so I'm not sure I understand your response. Could you please elaborate?

Thanks again!

Are you going to use .Net on the backend for your form code?
