    Call function of office panel from the Form code

    Hello.
    I made a personnal office panel wich contains listbox filled with data grabed from secondary data source. I'de like to know if it is possible to call functions situed inside the personnal panel bye clicking a button in the main form (for example).
    Because you can use MainForm objects inside the panel with
    'XDocument = window.external.Window.XDocument;'
    maybe there is a way to do the opposite.

    What do you mean a 'personnal office panel'? If you're talking about a Windows Form application, then I don't think there is a way to interoperate except through the filesystem. The Windows Form could save a file and then the InfoPath form could read that file. Or you could setup a TCP/IP connection between the two and exchange data that way. Either way is going to make the form full trust. :(

    By the way, I don't know if you've noticed or not but we now have a French forum :) I don't understand any of it, but from the looks of it there is a lot of activity there!http://www.infopathdev.com/forums/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=55

    Yes I noticed the french forum :)
    And by "personnal office panel" I mean the 'Custom Task Pane' you can show by including a Html page in the resources files (I juste found the 'english' name of it in a How-to ^^)
