Hi - I am using Infopath2007.
I have created a form attached to a sql database running from a Sharepoint document library- all working well. I would like to display the current solution version on the form, but I don't want that information written to the DB. - I need a text field not bound to the main data source to display it in. (I can see several other uses for fields to display this sort of transitory information) I have read in some other posts, the suggestion of using an xml file as a secondary data source for this. http://www.infopathdev.com/forums/p/5793/21730.aspx#21730
I have tried creating a secondary datasource - I can select either receive or submit.
If I choose submit I don't get xml as an option - so...
I have chosen receive and pointed to my xml file - but the secondary datasource is read only - so is no use for displaying changing data eg form version.
What should I have done ? What is the best way to achieve what I want ? How do I get a secondary datasource that I can write to ?
Thanks
