    Meta Deta Persists even when controls are removed

    hi guys,
    im developing an application where i have to parse the sample metadata in a form to find how many fields are there.

    the problem is : if i design a form with 3 textboxes and save it. the meta data shows 3 tags.

    but if i open the .xsn file in a designer again and remove a textbox
    the metadata would still have 3 tags.

    what info path does is just remove the html for the deleted textbox from
    the default view file.

    Hey,

    Are you just removing the text box from the template or are you also removing the element from the data source? There can be more elements in the data source than controls on the form.

    Check to see if you have removed it also from the data source in design mode and resave.
