InfoPath Dev

 Hi I am doing a SharePoint/InfoPath site and when I click my submit button I get an error that says Batch is Undefined. Below is a copy the code that is throwing the error

 batch.selectSingleNode("/Batch/Method/Field[@Name='ID']").text = ID;

Any help would be appreciated

-The batch is stored as a resource file and a data connection

Hi --

It would help to see the code prior to this line as well, since the undefined error makes me think that you've not initialized the variable named "batch".

Hello the entire code is below

function ListSubmit(xCAML,submitx)

{ var root = XDocument.DOM;

var ID = root.selectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:ID").text;

var Name = root.selectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:Name").text;

var From = root.selectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:From").text;

var To = root.selectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:To").text;

var Computers = root.selectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:Computers").text;

var Projectors = root.selectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:Projectors").text;

var Cameras = root.selectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:Cameras").text;

var Comments = root.selectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:Comments").text;

var Location = root.selectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:Location").text;

var LaptopCharger = root.selectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:LaptopCharger").text;

var Clicker = root.selectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:Clicker").text;

// Set the SharePoint ID

batch.selectSingleNode("/Batch/Method/Field[@Name='ID']").text = ID; < line that is throwing the batch undefined error>

// Set the Rerservers Name

batch.selectSingleNode("/Batch/Method/Field[@Name='Title']").text = Name;

// Set the From Date

batch.selectSingleNode("/Batch/Method/Field[@Name='Check_x0020_Out_x0020_From']").text = From;

// Set the To Date

batch.selectSingleNode("/Batch/Method/Field[@Name='Check_x0020_Out_x0020_Date']").text = To;

// Set the Computers

batch.selectSingleNode("/Batch/Method/Field[@Name='Computer']").text = Computers;

// Set the Projectos

batch.selectSingleNode("/Batch/Method/Field[@Name='Projector']").text = Projectors;

// Set the Cameras

batch.selectSingleNode("/Batch/Method/Field[@Name='Digital_x0020_Camera']").text = Cameras;

// Set the Comments batch.selectSingleNode("/Batch/Method/Field[@Name='Comments']").text = Comments;

// Set the Location

batch.selectSingleNode("/Batch/Method/Field[@Name='Location']").text = Location;

// Set the Laptop Charger

batch.selectSingleNode("/Batch/Method/Field[@Name='Laptop_x0010_Chargers']").text = LaptopCharger;

// Set the Clicker

batch.selectSingleNode("/Batch/Method/Field[@Name='Clickers']").text = Clicker;

// Submit the item details to the web service to update the list

XDocument.DataAdapters[submitx].Submit(); }

//======= // The following function handler is created by Microsoft Office InfoPath. // Do not modify the name of the function, or the name and number of arguments. //=======

function CTRL16::OnClick(eventObj)

{ var error = XDocument.Errors.Count;

if(error !=0)

{

objError = XDocument.Errors(0); //pinpoin data validation error and return alert

XDocument.UI.Alert("Error message: " + objError.ShortErrorMessage);

}

else

{

//if (XDocument.Dom.selectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:ID").text==[""]) //Prevent a 2nd attempt Submit if an ID has been assigned

//{

//if (!(XDocument.Dom.selectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:Project_Name").text==[""])) //Prevent initial Submit if no Project Name has been assigned

//{

//var submit1confirm=0

ListSubmit("SubmitBatch","Web Service Submit");

XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:submitrules").text = 1;

}

}

See how you are defining all your other variables -- var ID, etc? You aren't defining "batch" anywhere.

 In the Infopath form I have the batch as a resource file as well as a data connection to the batch as well as in the web service submit. where would i define the batch in the script. any suggestions

You are using a variable called "batch" - you need to define it in the script just like you define "ID".

So, something like var batch = XDocument.GetDOM("Batch")

With Batch replaced with the actual data source name of your data connection to your resource file.

 thank you i will try and respond if it works or not

Try this:

//get the CAML
XPathNavigator batch = DataSources["CustomListCAML"].CreateNavigator();

But that is C#, for IP 2007, and assumes that his data source is called "CustomListCAML". The original poster's code sample is jscript, thus using the 2003 OM.
