    Refresh Infopath data to SharePoint List

    Hi all,

    I have created a form in InfoPath and published it to a SP site.  Some of the fileds within InfoPath are used to pupolate a list in SP.  What happens is that when I modify the InfoPath form (eg, change the layout of some sections) and republish the form to SP, I loose all the data that populated the SP list!!  When I try to use the re-link document feature, it changes the 'Modified by' name to my login.  So how do we re-link docs without editing the modified by field?

     Thanks

    OK, found a way for anyone who comes accross this scenario.  All I did was open the list in Explorer under Actions, Open with Windows Explorer.  Make sure you let all the records load onto the explorer window (In this case the InfoPath icons are loading). Once it has done this, close the explorer window and refresh list. You will now find all the data there in the list :)
