You could use text or numerical values (i.e. STATE: 1 = Requestor, 2 = Approver, 3 = Notification).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Then in your open rules (Tools&amp;nbsp;| Form Options), you would look to see what state the form is in, and switch to the appropriate view.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Switching Views</title><link>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/28455.aspx</link><pubDate>Thu, 01 May 2008 14:44:41 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">033a2e2d-04e2-4a9d-be01-a4634161eefd:28455</guid><dc:creator>ebonymb</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/28455.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=39&amp;PostID=28455</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;I have 3 views in a form on SharePoint.&amp;nbsp; Requestor View, Approver View, and Notification View.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The requestor opens up the form in Requestor View and hits submit which then emails the form to an approver in Approver View.&amp;nbsp; This works perfectly.&amp;nbsp; When the Approver hits submit, it should do 2 things:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Email the Requestor in the Notification View&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Update the data to SharePoint.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Notification View is a read only version of the Approver View minus the submit button.&amp;nbsp; For some reason, when hitting submit from the Approver View, its not switching over to the Notification view so the Requestor gets a fully operating form.&amp;nbsp; I have user roles&amp;nbsp;setup&amp;nbsp;for&amp;nbsp;the Requestor and Approver views.&amp;nbsp; Do I need another for the Notification View?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
