InfoPath Dev

Hi All,

I have a zip file which is kept in a local drive.

can anybody tell me how to embed that file into infopath form programmatically?

Thanks,

Hi,

 You can use attachment control in the Infopath form to add a file to your Infopath form.

 Thanks Anuma for your response. But I think my question is not clear.

Actually I dont want to use file attachment control in my form. My requirement is to attach a file (which resides in local drive) to a infopath form programmatically.

Hi,

 Can you please verify these links.

Thanks Anuma for those links. In the first link, XmlManager is used. Check this line:

XMLManager.XMLSearchHelper xmlSrch = new XMLManager.XMLSearchHelper();

How can I get XMLManager!! Do I have to include any namespace or reference or something else??

Need your help on the following scenario:

I am having an infopath form along with file attachment control and a button.  I am attaching a file through file attachment control.

On button click, I want to zip that file and attach it to the same form, so that when another user opens that form he should be able to see that zip file.

I hope I am clear to you. Can this be done?

Thanks,

Jaimin
