Hi The.Student,

I'm terribly sorry about all the confusion here. I think we're still trying to get used to this new forum software, and that is clouding our minds, haha! All of our tutorials can be found as blog posts here: http://www.infopathdev.com/blogs/default.aspx

If you have a specific link that is returning a Server Not Found error, please PM it to me so we can take a look. This is a serious issue.

OK so I take it that no one actually cares or wants to help me... fair enough!

Hi Guys,

Just wondering if anyone had taken a look at this, and if anyone else can provide me with the information I need. e.g. a working link to the tutorial?

Many Thanks

<<<<<<< WHACK >>>>>>>>> :o)

What I was trying to say is that, the link for the how to file doesn't work, no file is available under the link that has been posted, do you have a link for the tutorial as I would like to read it?

Many Thanks

I'm sorry, I replied without going to the next page. Your last post on the first page said you wanted to pay someone to do this.

In general, no, we don't ask people to purchase support. This forum is free. We spend a lot of money each year helping people and Google Adsense, etc. really doesn't even come close to helping pay for 1% of the amount we spend helping people. Our goal with the forum is to help people who are experiencing problems that we have experienced in the past. Our goal is not to make money off of people.

However, many people will ask us for specific help that is not general. For these requests, we generally say "go figure". We'd be happy to help - if we knew what to do - but we haven't experienced *your* specific issue before, so if you want us to engage, we'll have to figure it out ourselves which usually takes more time than replying to posts where we have a priori experience.

Does that make sense? If not, feel free to whack me again and I might see the light. :)

OK not quite sure how that was suppose to be helpful?

It's not a support issue, it relates to missing files or incorrect paths at the server end.. the links are not clickable and so I take it null, and void.

Is there actually some helpful resorces and tutorials on this site, or is your answer to everything... purchase support ?

Hi,

Thanks for the reply, I know where it is and where its suppose to be, but when I open that thread and try using the link... e.g copy/paste it gives a standard .Net error in application page..

Any other links available?

Many thanks

Hi Guys,

I'm the new n00bie and want to know where I can view that tutorial, as the link does not work?

Many Thanks

So'kay, I think I am going to hire someone to do that part of the forms, its too much for me to wrap my little brain around. I am hoping Infopath 2008 or whatever version they come out with next addresses this with a Wizard. Seems to me Microsoft's Wizards would suit a lot of common form component tasks that you'd otherwise have to code for...

thanks for your help.

Hi Jay,

Sorry for sluffing off here, but it's hard to debug these things through the forums. There are also times when things can get complicated that trial-and-error can be helpful. The XPath I gave on March 24 is my best guess, but without stepping through the form with you, I doubt I'll be able to do much more.

Based on the lack of focused response, I guess my question is a little more complex than it looks.

"@pkguid" does not point to a valid location path of a field or group."

Do you have a suggestion as to why I get this error?
