InfoPath Dev

I think I'm getting close.  Thanks again for all the help.

The name of my drop down list is "dropdown" and the xpath is /my:myFields/my:Dropdown

The name of my richtext field is "field240"

 Can you walk me through what to do next?  Where do I paste the xpath?

Ok with your Xpath replace the function field239 by this one

// Write your code here to change the main data source.

 string MyURL = this.MainDataSource.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:Dropdown",this.NamespaceManager).Value;
            if(MyURL!="")
                this.MainDataSource.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:field240",this.NamespaceManager).InnerXml="<IMG xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\" SRC=\"" + MyURL + "\" />";

Yes richtext fields xpath is /my:myFields/my:field240.

I'm not getting any error messages but the images are also not showing up.

ok, Can you confirm that the value on the drop down list point to your file ?

Can you show me an example ?

 Here is an example of an entry in dropdown list properties.

I entered lis box entries manually

Value = Q:\!Todd\FORMS\Pics\1.jpg       (1.jpg is the name of the image)

Display name = pic1

In you rich text field do you see something ? an empty image with red x?

ok I saw something ...

 string MyURL = this.MainDataSource.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:Dropdown",this.NamespaceManager).Value;
            if(MyURL!="")
                this.MainDataSource.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:field240",this.NamespaceManager).InnerXml="<IMG xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\" SRC=\"" + MyURL + "\" />";

You say me that the name of your dropdown field is my:Dropdown and I saw the name of your function is public void field239_Changed. There is something wrong.

can you Right clic on your drop down, programming, Changed event, and put the code in this function

Here is a copy of the code as it stands right now.

using Microsoft.Office.InfoPath;

using System;

using System.Windows.Forms;

using System.Xml;

using System.Xml.XPath;

using mshtml;

public partial class FormCode

// Member variables are not supported in browser-enabled forms.

// Instead, write and read these values from the FormState

// dictionary using code such as the following:

//

// private object _memberVariable

// {

// get

// {

// return FormState["_memberVariable"];

// }

// set

// {

// FormState["_memberVariable"] = value;

// }

// }

// NOTE: The following procedure is required by Microsoft Office InfoPath.

// It can be modified using Microsoft Office InfoPath.

// Write your code here to change the main data source.

if (MyURL != "")

// Write your code here to change the main data source.

// Write your code here to change the main data source.

I GOT IT.  It is working perfectly now.  Thank you sooooooo... much for all your help.  I would have never figured it out on my own.

Hello again,  I'm glad that I could help you with that
