    How to Overwrite the Saved form with Submitted in infopath library.

     Hi All,

    I have created infopath library also deployed the infopath form as content type. When i open new form and Save into the library with "My Exepnse Saved" Named. When i open saved form and made some changes and Submit into library the new form will be Submitted (submited Form as Name  "EXp-FirstName-Now()"). But i don't want to do that i just want to overwrite the previous saved form (My Exepnse Saved") with this new submitted form. Is there any workaround for the same?? See i don't want to use different library for save and submit.  Any help will be highly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Bhavin A Sankhat

    Have you used custom logic on Submit button to save the form with auto generated name (EXp-FirstName-Now())?. If yes you need to change this logic. You can have one field (suppose FormName) which will not be shown on the form and is set when the form is opened for the first time. Use this field to name the form automatically when you submit the form. You don't need save option then. I have used same approach and it works fine. Make sure that Allow Overwrite option is selected.

    Thanks,
