    Parameter passing into a form

    Hi friends,

    I have a set of hyperlinks in SharePoint namely link1,link2,link3...linkn. On clicking any of these links,I want 2 actions to take place.
    1)An Infopath form should open.
    2)A field in the Infopath form should be populated with the hyperlink name.
    eg-If you click on link3,then the form should open with a particular field containing "link1" as its value.

    I want to know as to how we can pass parameter to an Infopath form on loading.

    regards,
    Abhishek.

    Re: Parameter passing into a form

    I tried to pass parameter use the method describe in this URL:
    http://infopathdev.com/howto/tutorials/default.aspx?i=af9e48a6e43c41f4be62296a7fa0e494

    and I dont know how and where Define the parameter Squema(the first step in the instruction URL). The question is: Where I can define this squema? In wich file I put the squema, in myschema.xsd file?

    I had tested but I can't get that it works. The message is:

    Spanish: "No se pudo identificar el esquema XML especificado de este formulario"

    or

    Inglish:CAnt identified the XML squema specified in this form


    Thanks a lot.
