Hi, Jan:

I spoke to our test lead about your questions.

For the first one - this is something we've not tested or documented. Since the command takes a data source name, it seems likely to work - you may simply want to give it a try.

As to the second question, he referred me to page 20 of this document: http://www.infopathdev.com/files/folders/qrules/entry76371.aspx

Hope this helps - let us know if you need more info.

I realise this is an old thread... but it's the only one I found on the forum directly mentioning this walk through "Define Termsets and use qRules to load them into your form". I have two complexities I need to address in relation to this: 1) Multiple MetaData columns ===================== Is there a way to have multiple sets of these cascading controls on one form - for the cases where there are multiple Meta Data fields in the SP list. The GetTermSetIds command that fires upon the QdabraRules (Secondary) finishedLoading event is List specific... but I'll need it to be more specific than that. Perhaps having multiple data connections to the TaxonomyClientService and specifying the termSetIds is the way to go... I'm not sure how the QDabra GetTermSets command operates. Am I on the right track. Is there a document explaining how to accomplish this by any chance. 2) The Cascading Lookups inside a Repeating section ===================================== This should be possible right? I've attempted it but couldn't get it working... yet. If you confirm that it should be possible - I'll definately give it another crack. Regards, Jan

The powershell script solved it. Had some troubles with getting it right! Is it even possible to make the cascading dropdown directly working in the browser? I looked at the documentation saying GetTermSetIds is not browser compatible.. Is it otherwise possible to for instance create 3 dropdown lists using 3 different connections and GUIDs where a selection in one list leads to a limited number (but correctly mapped) alternatives in the next?

What solved the issue with the dropdown? I'll ask Ernesto to chime in with any thoughts on what may have gone wrong w/ your child terms in the browser.

Okey, finally solved so that the dropdown shows in the browser and values are populated. Problem now is that I only get the termset and I also want to view child terms. Is this a compability issue for the browser? What else could be wrong? I'm getting no errors what so ever in the error node. I'm working with cascading dropdown list, just so it's taken into account. After selecting a term set in InfoPath I get a new dropdown list to choose childs from but it doesn't work in the browser.

I tried both things. My error message I get is "GetTermSets returned no result". I've tried do save my udcx-files to a data connection library, approve them.Still nothing.

Can you try setting postback on your dropdown control to Always? Under the control properties, on the Browser tab, set postback to Always - see what happens in the browser then. If that doesn't fix it, could you put the qRules data source Error node on your form so you'll be able to see if qRules is returning any errors?

Well, I can publish the form and open it but the dropdown list is empty which it's not in the InfoPath Preview. I'm getting no errors but as I said before. But I get a warning about the form templete on the server when I look in the design checker. No errors in the browser what so ever. What could possibly be wrong? Followed the guide numerous times exactly as stated. Also, if I can get it to work, will I be able to use the form as a filter for a list etc?

Reviewing this thread, I think you are saying you can publish the form successfully, and open the form without a problem, but that the functionality is not working as you'd anticipate - you aren't getting any errors when you open the form in the browser?

What version of SharePoint?

Re: Stuck on an expression in InfoPath

GustafTornquist — Thu, 13 Dec 2012 15:09:59 GMT

Well, the form didn't do much more than say "Hello there" and I hope that was correct! What now? Can you think of any reason why the form works on your server and not on mine?

Is there any configuration settings needed to be done or something else in SharePoint, InfoPath or qRules?

I'm getting a bit desperate here because it's getting quite urgent.

You can click Ignore when prompted for the code project.

I guess I would check whether the Sandbox service is running, which would allow you to bypass the admin deploy and instead publish directly to the form library.

Thanks for checking it out! I'll look into it tomorrow at work. Meanwhile, do you have any idea what could be causing the problem? Should I look at special features or services that needs to be activated? InfoPath Form Services is at least activated for sure but otherwise I'm not completely certain. I'm not the main admin for the SharePoint site. Could it depend on proxy settings or something else? Edit: The xsn you sent me, I'm getting an error that it's missing the VB or CS-file for the project. Could you perhaps send that over as well?

Thanks.

Could you try publishing the form I attached earlier? The error message ("Could not verify the form template on the specified server") suggests a server issue.

I looked at Design checked locally and indeed I don't see any other messages.

Maybe publishing the test form will give us some ideas on what may be going on. Thanks.
