    Query regarding form submit and email connections

    Hello Friends,

    I have browser based InfoPath form which contains data. I have 2 buttons on the form, one for submitting the data to form library and the other "Send Email" button to send the filled form as an email to user. For the submitting option I used the default submit data connection and it woks perfectly. Now on "Send Email" button I used the "Email" data connection and it works fine as well. But when I was testing the functionality of two buttons the "Email" data connection was set as the default connection!!!!

     I am still not sure how the "Email" connection replaced the "Form Submit" connection and vice versa.

    Please suggest me correct process.

    Thanks,
    Chandra Shekhar

    Hello Chandra Shekhar,

    I understand that you are unable to use two submit connections simultaneously. This happens if you configure the submit action at the button properties. As a solution, set both button properties' action to Rules and Custom Code (right click Button > Button Properties and then select the action).

    After setting this up, proceed to your Home tab, select the button, at the ribbon click Add Rule > When his Button is Clicked > Submit Data - a window will prompt you select which data connection to associate with the button selected.

    Repeat steps for the other button. Hope this helps.
