Hi- I have a button with rules in it. I have code behind the rules. How can I stop the code from firing if certain rules are not met. Thanks.

if the rules are met, place some particular value (say "RulesFired") in a fied (say "areRulesFired"), and in the code check for the value. if the "areRulesFired" field does not have value "RulesFired" dont execute the code.

Just so I think I understand you correctly, at the end of each successful rule place a "set the value of " the (newly added) field called "areRulesFired" to "RulesFired" text . Then the code would look for the "RulesFired" text in the "areRulesFired" field. And if it finds it, then the code runs. 

If the "RulesFired" text is not in the  "areRulesFired" field, the code doesn't run. Is my thinking correct?

And if it is, can you please give me an example of what the line of code would look like and tell me where to put that line of code, in the code (in the beginning or in the middle or at the end)?

Thanks qazi_anis

XPathNavigator xnDoc = null;

xntemp = xnDoc.SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:areRulesFired", this.NamespaceManager);

if ( xntemp.toString().equals("RulesFired"))

{

//write your code here

}

// If this does not solve the problem attach the xsn and the cs file and i will try to resolve it for you

if u have more than one rule. then u might consider option of appending some value to it

suppose on firing of ur rule 1 set the value of (say areRulesFiredto1)

on firing of ur rule 2 append (2) to it so that new value is (12)

similar for all your rules

and in the code just check if the value is equal to ("123..n")

hope this solves the problem

Thanks qazi_anis. I'll give it a try and let you know how it turns out.
