InfoPath Dev

I have an IP form with an attachment control within a repeating section and a save button outside of the repeating section. When an attachment is added, the save button can be use to save the attachment to a predefined path. However, when the repeating section is used, the save button only saves the first attachment and none of the attachments that have been created with the repeating section.

Is there any way to save the other attachments that have been created with the repeating section?

I have added my form to this post for reference.

Thanks,

 You should use the selectNodes method instead of selectSingleNode, and then iterate through the results (you can use a foreach loop), saving one file each time the loop iterates.  You will need to come up with a scheme for differentiating the file names.

Can you give me an example that points me in the right direction on how to do this?

I tried you the foreach loop with the following code:

//Get the text of the node.

foreach (IXMLDOMNode selectnodes in selectnodes)

 The first line should have DOMNodeList, not IXMLDOMNode.

The foreach line should be something like:

foreach(IXMLDOMNode node in n)

and then you should replace "field1" with "node" in these lines:

 if (field1.Length > 0)

 InfoPathAttachmentEncoding.InfoPathAttachmentDecoder(field1);

I made the suggested changes.

//Get the text of the node.

foreach (IXMLDOMNode node in n)

 Remove this line:

String field1 = n.text;

Make the following two changes:

 if (node.Length > 0)  --> if (node.text.Length > 0)

 InfoPathAttachmentDecoder(node); --> InfoPathAttachmentDecoder(node.text);

I made the suggested changes.

//Get the text of the node.

InfoPathAttachmentEncoding.InfoPathAttachmentDecoder myDecoder = InfoPathAttachmentDecoder(node.text);

You eliminated the end of this line

InfoPathAttachmentEncoding.InfoPathAttachmentDecoder myDecoder = new

and the beginning of this line

InfoPathAttachmentEncoding.InfoPathAttachmentDecoder(node);myDecoder.SaveAttachment(@"C:\Users\Lawson\Documents\Category A\A1-Acquisition Plan");

 that were present in your previous post.

Yep, made the changes, and it works great.

Thanks for all your help man!

My bulldog says the same...

Since you’re up, I’ve got a different question.

If you have some time, maybe you can point me in the right direction.

I need to create a button that converts the contents of textboxes on a form to a .csv file and saves the .csv file to a specified path.

Do you know how to do this???

THanks
