InfoPath Dev

Good morning all.

I created a little test project to capture a user name in VBScript. It all works well, but when I pasted the code in the "big" project, the user name will not populate the User Name field(s).

Has anyone out there experienced this phenomenon?

My code is a follows:

<code>

Public Sub UserName()

Dim objNet

On Error Resume Next 'In case we fail to create object then display our custom error

Set objNet = CreateObject("WScript.NetWork")

Dim strInfo strInfo = objNet.UserName

XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("dfs:myFields/my:LANUserID").Text = strInfo 

XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("dfs:myFields/my:TestLANID").Text = strInfo 

Set objNet = Nothing 'Destroy the Object to free the Memory

End Sub

</code>

 Any ideas?

 Thank you, WHEELS

Hi Wheels,

Well, are you calling the new subroutine? Since I can't see the rest of your code, I have no way of debugging it. Just adding this routine won't result in it working since something has to call it.

Hi Patrick.

I had this code in the form laod event:

Sub XDocument_OnLoad(eventObj)
'line 20
Dim objNet
On Error Resume Next 'In case we fail to create object then display our custom error
Set objNet = CreateObject("WScript.NetWork")
 
Dim strInfo
strInfo = objNet.UserName
XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("dfs:myFields/my:LANUserID").Text = strInfo
'XDocument.UI.Alert(strInfo)
XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("dfs:myFields/my:TestLANID").Text = XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("dfs:myFields/my:LANUserID").Text
'strInfo = "User Name is     " & objNet.UserName & vbCRLF & _
          '"Computer Name is " & objNet.ComputerName & vbCRLF & _
         ' "Domain Name is   " & objNet.UserDomain
'MsgBox strInfo

Set objNet = Nothing                    'Destroy the Object to free the Memory

End Sub

 but now I call it from the form laod as follows:

Sub XDocument_OnLoad(eventObj)

UserName
End Sub

Hi,

 Were you able to resolve this issue? Beacuse I'm trying to do the same and it doesn't work after the form is published. I have it in the on_load event. It works well when I try in the design to Preview form mode. I would like to capture user name once the form is submitted.

Thanks,

Hi Stara.

I was able to resolve this issue, and haven't worked on it for years (doesn't seem that long ago).

I'm not entirely sure what you are trying to do, but I'll give it my best shot:

My code is as follows:

Sub XDocument_OnLoad(eventObj)

Dim objNet On Error Resume Next 'In case we fail to create object then display our custom error

Set objNet = CreateObject("WScript.NetWork") Dim strInfo Dim userName2 XDocument.DisplayAlerts = False

strInfo = objNet.UserName XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("dfs:myFields/my:LANUserID").Text = strInfo

End Sub

I derived the user name (in my company it is a code like ABCDE), and then used the variable in an SQL --> Access query to resolve the ID into a actual name. I have also done this by automating to Outlook (in other  (VBA) projects). I'm sure you could tie the Function to run off the submit button on your form.

Were you able to get the user name after the form was published? It works for me only in the Preview, but nothing happens when form is published.

Let me know.

Thanks

I don't particually care for InfoPath or Access to much. I do C#.NET, SQL Server, and Teradata these days. It is really difficult to recall what I did two years ago, but I recall something about setting the form as Fully Trusted. I hope that helps.

 I found the following post relating to a Trusted form and user name: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointinfopath/thread/705c108d-e945-46bb-80d5-ece8106dada8.
