Thank u in advance

Hi -- what version of InfoPath are you using? 2003 or 2007? They differ, so if you have to use code, it will help anyone who helps you to know that....

For example, if you are using InfoPath 2007, you can use something like this:

//create a variable for the first Monday

            DateTime monday;

           

            //get the value of today

            DateTime startDate = DateTime.Now;

 

            //get the first day in September using the year from that date

            DateTime septOne = new DateTime(startDate.Year, 9, 1);

 

            //is it a Monday? If so, we are done

            if (septOne.DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Monday)

            {

                monday = septOne;

            }

            //otherwise we need to do a little date math

            else

            {

                monday = septOne.AddDays(8 + (0 - septOne.DayOfWeek));

            }

 

            //set another field to the first Monday in Sept

            XPathNavigator nav = MainDataSource.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:FirstMonday", NamespaceManager);

            nav.SetValue(monday.ToString());

Hey Hilary,

 That code actually won't work when September 1st is a Sunday, as it will calculate the first Monday as September 9th.  The following is based off your code and should do the trick:

Hilary Stoupa:

//create a variable for the first Monday

            DateTime monday;

           

            //get the value of today

            DateTime startDate = DateTime.Now;

 

            //get the first day in September using the year from that date

            DateTime septOne = new DateTime(startDate.Year, 9, 1);

 

           monday = septOne.AddDays((8 - (int)septOne.DayOfWeek) % 7);

 

            //set another field to the first Monday in Sept

            XPathNavigator nav = MainDataSource.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:FirstMonday", NamespaceManager);

            nav.SetValue(monday.ToString());
