I am hoping that I can get an answer that will work. I have done a day and a half of research on the web trying different suggestions, to no avail.
- Created a job requisition form in InfoPath 2010.
- Created a "Jobs" SharePoint 2010 list with the following fields: Title (job title); Salary; Job Description; Essential Job Functions & responsibilities; Minimum Requirements; Additional Desired Qualifications
- Each of these fields in SharePoint 2010 are Enhanced rich text "(Rich text with pictures, tables, and hyperlinks)"
- In InfoPath I created a Data Connection to the SharePoint list that 'sees' all of the above fields in the list
- In the InfoPath form, in the field "Title" I created a dropdown that is connected to the data source and pulls the titles from the list.
- Created rules that follow this article - http://www.bizsupportonline.net/infopath2003/autofill-fields-infopath-dropdown-selection-secondary-data-source.htm
Works ALMOST perfectly.
When the rules run, the data populates as expected and it LOSES all formatting.
I have done extensive research and can't located anything that fixes these issues. Is there a solutions that fixes this that doesn't involve Visual Studio? Although, I do have it, I don't know what to do with it unless I have a step-by-step.
FYI, I am the admin and have access to the SP server, so permissions are not an issue.
Desperately seeking a solution. Seems so easy but I have wasted too much time.
Thank you for any solution you can provide here.
