First, thanks for your efforts in trying to resolve the issue.

The signarture picture and date/time work in repeating sections. The only thing that was not working was the name in the DisplaySignedBy field: when you add a new item the name for all previous signatures disappears and once the new item is signed the same signed by name then appears for all signatures .

I used the following solution to resolve this issue:

1. In field properties , click on the formula (fx) button for the default value.

2. Double click on title in the formula.

3. Select 'Main' as the primary field.

4. Select 'UserName' under the 'UserInfo' group.

Not sure if this is the best solution. Please let me know if you have any other ideas..

:-)

Post back settings on the validate check box were still set to "only when necessary" instead of "always" - that may be causing your issue in the browser. I've changed that.
SharePoint data connections have changed with 2010 - sorry, I'd not remembered that. Your expressions for your validate conditions need to be:
For Valid Pin
../my:UserInfo/my:PIN = xdXDocument:GetDOM("PIN List_ElectronicSignature")/dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/d:SharePointListItem_RW/d:PIN[../d:Title = current()/../my:UserInfo/my:UserName]
For Invalid Pin:
../my:UserInfo/my:PIN != xdXDocument:GetDOM("PIN List_ElectronicSignature")/dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/d:SharePointListItem_RW/d:PIN[../d:Title = current()/../my:UserInfo/my:UserName]
../my:UserInfo/my:UserName != xdXDocument:GetDOM("PIN List_ElectronicSignature")/dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/d:SharePointListItem_RW/d:Title[../d:PIN = current()/../my:UserInfo/my:PIN]
../my:UserInfo/my:UserName != xdXDocument:GetDOM("PIN List_ElectronicSignature")/dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/d:SharePointListItem_RW/d:Title

I've attached your template where I've made these adjustments (also added a comment to Mel's blog post on the changed expressions with ShP 2010). Can you give this one a try, see if we are any closer?

I'll take a look today, see if I can see what's up.

Hi, tried changing the postback settings but with no success. Template attached. Thanks again for your assistance.

I think that you may be having a postback issue - if your issues in the browser are not present when you try the form in preview, it is often postback. You can set postback to always on the control executing the rules (the sign checkbox in this instance, I believe). For your second issue - I wonder if you are using current() where needed? Feel free to attach the template to the Options tab, I'm happy to take a quick look.

Followed the blog closely, but having some difficulties: when signed in the browser the signature picture is not displayed (only an empty picture field) and the user/pin section is not hidden. Also, when adding a new item (signature) the 'Signed by [name]' line under the previous signatures changes to insert the name of the last person signing the form.

Happy to send you the form or give you site access to look around.

Would appreciate any assistance :-)

Try walking through the blog post - I think you'll find it isn't too different between IP 2007 & IP 2010. Just let me know if you run into any trouble. :-)

Thanks for your reply. As a work around (to having the signature control in a repeatable table) I just had multiple signatures on the page. However the same date and time was stamped for all signatures. I have not yet attempted the solution based on IP 2007. This seems like the best option. I will give it a go and post any questions if I run into difficulties. Cheers.

I'm not finding a re-write of that for IP 2010, but I read through it and it should be the same for 2010 (except for how you access the rules) - what in particular is giving you an issue?

Hi, thanks for the follow up post.

I've emailed the support team to see if there are specific 2010 instructions. I'd imagine that except for how you get to the rules in the UI, they'd be pretty much the same...

Hi, just bought the and it works mostly very well. Delighted by the solution compared with Digital Certificates.

The only issue I am having is getting multiple signatures to work. Are there any instructions for Infopath 2010? I could only locate the instructions by Mel Balsamo from July 2009.

Cheers

Hello

Is Qdabra's Electronic Signature Template Part cabable of working in O365?

Cheers
