InfoPath Dev

Hi ,

        I am very new to InfoPath. I need to create a form and send to user through email and the user must fill the form and click submit. Here how can i take the values from or how can I set the values to the controls. That is how can I access the controls like textbox or dropdownlist?

for ex:

 I want to assign like this.

     Textbox1.Text="some values" (this is not default values.It is a runtime values)

 Please advice me how to handle..

Thanks all.

hi,

U want to access the control and place ur data to that then u can use setvalue property of the control.

this is the sample: 

 this.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:Hidden", this.NamespaceManager).SetValue("0");

Here iam settign the "Hidden" field which is a textbox value to "0".This is through code in visual studio.

Hi Anu,

Thanks for your answering. Can you please elaborate your sample code ("this.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:Hidden", this.NamespaceManager).SetValue("0");" ? Where can i set the name for an control (like my:Hidden)?

then what is my:myfields?

 Thanks,

Thiyagu.

hi,

my:myFields -> is the main root of the controls in infopath.

if u  r having myFields/controls/mycontrols/hidden then u have to give

"my:myFields/my:controls/my:mycontrols/my:hidden. then only u can access the control.

 This is the way of accesssing controls
