InfoPath Dev

Hi,

I want to keep a history of who has updated my InfoPathForms.  This will be visible to developers in a separate View I have created a Group with repeating field(Updatedby) to store the information.

When I open the form I can determine who is opening the form.  How do I create a new Updatedby record and populate it with this information - preferably using Rules rather than code.

Thank you

Catharine

Execute the above steps whenever the user opened the form .By following the above steps you can save history who has updated the InfoPath form.

Thank you for the reply.

My coding is very limited.  Do you know of any example of the process described that I could use as my starting point ?

Hello,

Here is the code you have to write in your onLaod function,

IXMLDOMDocument2 sampleDataDom = (IXMLDOMDocument2)thisXDocument.CreateDOM();

sampleDataDom.async = false;

sampleDataDom.validateOnParse = false;

sampleDataDom.setProperty("SelectionNamespaces", "namespace of your form");

sampleDataDom.load("sampledata.xml");

IXMLDOMNode nodeFromSampledata = sampleDataDom.selectSingleNode("XPath of repeating field node").cloneNode(true);

//Setting the update by field value

nodeFromSampledata.text = "Update by value";

IXMLDOMNode parentNode = thisXDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("Parent node path");

//Inserting the sample node at first position.

parentNode.parentNode.insertBefore(nodeFromSampledata, parentNode);
