    Help with submitting forms

    Hi All,

    I have built a form that queries a database and then submits to a sharepoint library and in the process changes a value of a field. [this all works great] [Step 1 - Reviewer Stage]

    Next step another person is notified via a workflow [this works fine too] that a form is waiting for them to check in the library, the user opens the file makes their comments and press's submit, it changes the value of a field and it then should update itself in the Sharepoint library, the field is updated but the rest of the rule(s) won't function like 'close' this form - I get the following error:

    InfoPath cannot submit the form.
    An error occurred while the form was being submitted.
    The form cannot be submitted to the following location:
    http://xxx/xxx/xxx/xxx/y.xml
    The file is in use by another application or user.

    Is there a way to update or save rather then re-submit (it should keep the same file name) - the strange this is, I get this error but all the comments and change field value rules are changed and updated in Sharepoint but I get this error and the form doens't close.

    The data connection that is used has allow overwrite of file, it is a fully trusted form...any ideas?

    Thanks,

    It may be something in the workflow.  If the form changes are being saved then it may be an issue when it is trying to complete the workflow that it is encountering the lock.  Unfortunately I am not as familiar with the SP workflow yet.

    Just a thought.
