    Displaying controls when XML doesn't contain corresponding data

    Reply Contact

    Hi,

     I've created an InfoPath form based on my own XSD. Some of the elements in the XSD are optional, and therefor not always included in the XML I'm displaying in the InfoPath form. Still I would like to display the corresponding controls in the InfoPath form. The idea is to add information not included in the XML manually. Is it possible to display the controls each time, independently of what data the XML-file contains?

    Thanks in advance!

    Kind regards,

    Therese

    Typically you would have a complete XML and just have blank values for the non essential fields or default values. Then they can be optional.
